Kia ora,

The biggest problem with this photo is the sky! It's overexposed; no detail in the sky! 

So, under quality - exposure issues.

Oh I see. Thank you !

You're welcome!

Hi,

I would say also the overexposed Sky and maybe also that the Skydiver are a little bit small.

You've also converted it to duotone, which is not permitted by Adobe stock,

The shadows are also under exposed and it is black and white.

The above image isn't B&W. This is B&W, which is not recommended!

Per the help pages:

Don’t: Convert your image to black & white or duotone. Buyers want the maximum flexibility provided by the full color image.
