I have the following problems.
1. The most of photos were declined nowadays. I have been here for few years and I know which photo will be accepted and which one will be declined. But nowadays almost all of my photos were declined.
2. Also many of my photos were left for few months without review.
3. Sometimes they even asked me to send model release while I have manequins in my photo.
Is this my own problem only or most of you are sharing the same problem?

1) Are you submitting real photographs? Without seeing an example and the rejection reason, there will be no further comment.
2) That is a known issue, and we have no solution to that. Either you delete and resubmit or you wait.
3) Sure. That may happen. Create a property release. That should work. Some moderators are probably too inexperienced with that. But: without seeing the image, this may or may not be the problem.

Many contributors are currently experiencing delays in the review process, especially in categories like photography and AI-generated content. These longer wait times are likely due to a backlog of submissions, which has caused reviews to take significantly longer than usual. To help speed things up, it's a good idea to upload smaller batches and focus on underrepresented or niche topics, as these may be prioritized for review. While some delay is normal, if your content has been in review for more than three months, it’s recommended to contact Adobe Contributor Support and request an update on the status of your submissions.

When submitting photos that include mannequins, it's important to mark them as "property" rather than "people" during the upload process. This helps prevent the system from mistakenly identifying them as real individuals, which could trigger a request for a model release. To further clarify, you should add a note in the description or metadata stating, “This image features a mannequin, not a real person.” If Adobe still requests a model release despite these steps, you can reach out to Contributor Support and explain the situation. In most cases, once it's confirmed that the subject is a mannequin, the image will be accepted without requiring a release.
