Hello, I recently submitted photos to Adobe Stock to test the waters but only one was accepted. The rest were not due to "Quality Issues".  As you know, they don't go into further detail.  Could the community give me some feedback?  I uploaded a variety of subjects to see which, if any, were selected.  Are they out of focus, not detailed enough, not the correct dpi or size?  What do you think?  For this post, these photos had to be reduced in size to upload. 

Thank you,

 Debra Frawley

    For the fawn, I would have removed the weeds in front of its face and body. Not necessarily the large ones near it's legs, but the thin ones covering its face and body. 

    For the landscape, the trees in the background lack detail. And, as landscapes and sunsets so, this isn't the most exiting one I've come across compared to others on Adobe Stock.

    Nothing is in focus in the ferns image.

    The drift wood is kind of nice, but the composition is a little on the week side. I'd like to see it off center more to the left.

    For the ship, maybe a Property Release issue? I really haven't blown all of these up enough to find any minor details that might exist. If not a Property Release issue, I think the composition would be stronger the mast wasn't cut off at the edges.

    The ship does not need a property release, as wouldn't a stool in your living. Showing only the mast does not identify the ship… (I know it's not true, my brother, in his youth, could have told you the ship's name, just by seeing this.)

      I agree with the comments of  @daniellei4510. The ship's mast image is not well composed in that the outer edges of the cross beam are cut off.

      Is that what it's called? A cross beam? And the big pole in the middle is that mast? Hey, the closest thing I've come to sailing is a paddle boat. 🙂
