I AI is going to kill me! 15 years as a stock contributor and I just can't catch the problems in my pictures. I am told to watch for eyes fingers and nose and mouth. most babies or people don't have two exact eyes but I selected the closest pictures. There were 70 in this batch and I paid a keyworder.
1, st question, can we add keywords after acceptance?
2nd what is wrong with these pictures?
Yes, Keywords can be added after the image has been accepted.
Here errors that I see in the first image.
I circled some issues, along with a quick retouch (which still has issues). Even then, the couple looks like they're skin is made of wax.
The best one is your last one, but the baby's hands are messed up.
Bottom line, irises DO look identical in real life, they are perfect circles with centered pupils, and catchlights more often than not should be the same in both eyes.
For a 15 years veteran, you should look at your assets more critically:
Hello,
Did you want these AI photos to be photo realistic? If so, they're not. The faces and skin tones are rather bad, and they look too plasticky - like dolls! Especially the second and third!! So other thing to watch out for with people is skin tones and not getting them to look like their skin is of plastic - unless you want them to look like the Autons (Doctor Who).
Real human babies don't have a full head of long hair. At most it's ear to chin-length.

Thank you for all your comments. They help me understand what is wrong with the pictures and learn from them.

Babies' eyes are downright bizzare!

Why do you pay a keyworder? Did you pay one for the last 15 years, or just because you now get enormous numbers of refusals?
Yes, you can adapt keywords after acceptance, but you won't like the system, as it is not very efficient to change a lot of keywords.
And btw, you should do what you were told to do.

AI is no replacement for human talent & editing skills. At best, it's a tool. When used correctly it can help artists to fully express what they want to say, after considerable trial & error. I'm not 100% vested in AI for those reasons. I think it's a lot harder to get good results than most people realize.
Good luck.
