I feel that most of the images are not focused.

Also look at the fringing.

433% is a lot. But, here you can see the fringing and the bad focus.

Hi @beaver1234 ,

The first image: Too much of the frame is out of focus. The subject is not completely in focus and also displays blue/purple color fringing. 

Frankly I like the exposure of the second image. However based on the explanation at Create Better Photos For Adobe Stock With 7 Tips For Success, the brightness resulting in a pale color tone will be counted as overexposure without even consulting with the histogram. 

Details of the subject of the 3rd image is lost. There seem not to be enough contrast. Too much highlights to the right and what seem to be blue color fringing on the branches at the left.

The 4th and 5th are the same as the second.

Please zoom in on your images to inspect for issues.

 

Also please note that you are better helped for resubmission when you say the reason for rejection. If you prefer getting an overall critique that is fine, but we'd prefer if you specifically say so, and also mention that they were submitted for stock. Being uncooperative is not the way to go.

 

Best wishes

As a volunteer and frequent forum participant, I don't think I'm alone when I say the obfuscation you add to images is unnecessary and provides us with no useful data.  For meaningful feedback from us, please refrain from adding overlays. 

 

You haven't told us why your images were rejected.  So I guess it is was for technical reasons and possibly others.

As you can see from the BEFORE and AFTER shots below, this brick wall is noticeably overexposed.

 

BEFORE:

 

AFTER:

 

That said, this will probably not make many sales for you as Adobe Stock currently contains over 2 million images of brick walls.  Whether or not Adobe are accepting more bricks at this time, nobody here can say.  That's an internal decision that's likely based on how much demand there is for bricks, as well as the quality and aesthetic of your images compared to your competition's

Make adjustments and resubmit if you think it's worth your while.  Good luck!

It's not a guessing game. TELL US THE REJECTION REASONS FOR EACH PICTURE.

I'm sorry, it's no disrespect to what you're doing here.
But if the picture is wrong, or flawed in any way, it should be obvious from the picture and not from the description.

Well, you clearly know better than all of us, why are you even asking?

@beaver1234 ,

You should know by now that you should give the refusal reason.

 

First is out of focus, second is overexposed, third is overexposed, is missing contrast and has chromatic aberration, fourth is bricks like the second and missing contrast, fifth is bricks like second and fourth and is overexposed.

Well...

 

those bricks patterns.

Histogram looks good.

I do not see any overexposition.

Especially no.4.

 

That tree, could you please highlight where do you see that aberration.

Histogram looks good.

So I have doubts about overexposition.

And contrast... if you think thats better, I have no problem to sink shadows into the black.

This strongly looks like overexposure. But if you think you know better…  At least I think that moderators think as I do… in this case!
