05921: Noise, white balance, and exposure. Adobe stock moderators tend to be very picky on sunset/sunrise pictures, because there is an abundant number of pictures in the database.

06086: Macro pictures are difficult to achieve correctly. For most applications, there is no problem, but stock needs them perfect. You missed the focus nearly:

I would also have edited out the lower-left corner. It disturbs. But that's not the refusal reason.

06101: Seen at 100%: out of focus.

The contrast could be more pronounced.

 

For most applications, your pictures would be good enough (even that you missed the focus completely on your third), but with stock you cannot predict what happens with the asset, so it really needs to be perfect.

Hi @Fabiano23398179h5m1 ,

The first file is underexposed. Details are lost in the low lit areas. 

The second photo is out of focus. If you were trying to get the mantis as the main subject then you need to pay attention to what's before to avoid getting it in the the frame or to have enough depth of field and correct focus adjustments to capture the creature. For the second photo I'd concentrate on capturing that entire crop of aloe of which the mantis would fall in focus.

The third photo has the same issue as the second. You always need to watch what's in the forefront to either include in focus or remove before capture.

 

Learn more about what is required by Adobe at Stock Contributor Learn Support and Tips to get your stock photos selected.

Here are some additional information you may also benefit from.

 

Best wishes

Hello,

The overall quality just isn't good when zoomed in. The focus on the praying mantis could be better. 

There are also a gazillion sunset photos, so your one I'm afraid won't meet the quality standards; it isn't exposed very well.

Have a read of this. It's a brief guide on image quality:

Have a look at the Adobe Stock tutorials:

nope its not well expose, 921 might be about temperture of the photo too warm, 086 & 101 may be main subject out of focus. i'm not a pro just been reject like this too, 921 may b adjust on the temp and resubmit, 086 & 101 im not sure how to fix that but may crop the photo and move the grasshopper he the side to make it provide copy-space and reduce noise too. hope this help.
