First Submission Rejected – Seeking Guidance on Quality Issues

[Mayartit]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to Adobe Stock and recently submitted my first AI-generated image, but it was rejected due to "quality issues." Since I'm still learning, I’d love to understand what specific aspects might have led to the rejection.

I’ve reviewed my image carefully, but I’m not sure if it’s related to sharpness, noise, artifacts, or something else. If anyone has experience with this or can offer feedback, I’d really appreciate it!

Thank you in advance for your help!

You have exposure issues and you have noise in the background. You will need to work your lightning skills.

Study the shadows carefully. Some of them don't make sense given the direction of the light.

Noise and overexposed highlights. Shadows on background should be removed.

I deal with this "sparkle" issue on occasion and gen fill usually corrects the problem. It is probably also cropped too tightly. Gen expand would probably screw up the hand, but the back of the head can be worked with. I got rid of the peach fuzz at the back of the chin as well.

Meant to mention I also added a catch light to her eyes. It looked a bit "dead" without it.

Exposure -

The pixels are on the far right, which indicates overexposure.

This shows how your pixels are displayed from dark to light.

And, I would also suggest that the white balance is a bit on the yellow/green side, so reduce that somewhat to get better skin tones.
