Image 1 is completely out of focus and full of artifacts. The other images also have these artifacts, I call them pixel clumps. In picture 3 the white balance is wrong. You can actually take good photos with an iphone 7, you have to pay attention to good lighting conditions.

Hello,

I would suggest thinking more about your composition also. What are you trying to capture? How could these pictures be used commercially? You have to think about the commercial aspect as stock is used for commercial purposes.

Have a read of these links from Adobe:
