29 is too small to check!

 

The crabs picture has a bad composition. Even so, it would need a model release and may be also a property release.

The specifics are in your Stock Contributor User Guide.  Did you read it all the way through?

 

Stock is not like social media. It's a global assets business. Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects -- posters, magazines, product packaging, advertisements, videos & merchandise.

IMG_0728.jpg - focus is a bit soft, and you would need to supply a model release for the recognizable people in the image

Diseño sin título.jpg - zoomed in at 100% the focus is quite soft

Your photos are nice, specially the climbers... Sadly, I notice an overall softness (lack of focus) on all your photos. The one with the crab legs, 

shows too much face, and probably needs a model release.

 

What camera and lens are you using? This is either the result of "cheap lenses" 

Conoces apps como Topaz para mejorar problemas de enfoque? Hay veces que arregla la foto lo suficiente para que sean aceptadas.

Si te interesa, respondeme probamos con una foto.

i used a Nikon d 5600.  Would be good idea to get a better lens. 
No conozco Topaz. Me interesa, gracias.
