Hello everyone! My following 2 photos are rejected on Adobe stock (first time that I've submitted photo's). Is someone with experience with photography willing to point out where I could improve on? Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I'm afraid your two images are definitely not up to quality standards.

Underexposed, crooked, and the composition is rather bad.

Have a read of this from Adobe about how to create better photos. It will be a good start:

Both are Underexposed, poorly composed, with a leaning horizon. Why not take an extra few seconds to compose it properly? This kind of "quick snapshot" is rarely going to be acceptable to Adobe Stock.

Thanks! The reason: I'm new to photography so I wasn't aware of composure.

There are many, many resources available to improve your photography skills. First you need to learn the controls of the camera and what every one of them does. I suggest that you spend a lot of time learning and practicing photography before you try selling any images on stock sites.

What reason did Adobe give? I suspect technical issues. 1st pic: There are colour fringes, partially underexposed, too little contrast.

The reason is indeed 'quality issues'. The image is not up to quality standards.
