I need some critic

Hello everybody, new to this and need some critic about my picture to improve, sorry for my bad english.

Noise in Shadow areas

[joanH]

It looks as if there are two photos in this one is only 40% on a different level and flattened to one. Very unclear all around. Best to present sharply focused single photo. Check the Adobe Stock for similar photos. Perhaps go through the new member tutorial on how to present and what things to present. JH

Thank you for the advise!. This is a one photo, with reflection of the bulding in a granite wall.

[joanH]

Yes, I could tell it was the reflection but it was not very clear. Can you sharpen the reflection?

[federicoc47489365]

I can't sharpen the reflection so much no.

[federicoc47489365]

Thanks for answer, do you see something more to improve?

This is a great picture, but it would not be suited for Adobe stock, I suppose.

First it violates intellectual property as I suppose the architect is not dead for more then 70 years. Second the noise level is quite high (someone mentioned noise in the shadow areas, but I see noise all over the picture). Third: there are artifacts comming probably from sharpening. The noise can also be introduced by the sharpening.

What where your camera parameters? What did you do in post with this image? That’s what I would like to read.

[federicoc47489365]

Thanks for your answer, very helpful. Parameters are iso 100, f / 1,8 and shutter speed 1/30 seg. About post procesing i can't tell so much because english is not my mother language and to basic for a detailed description, sorry. Really apreciate the time you spend in answer me.

I am telling from my own experience, While uploading images at Adobe zoom photo at 100% or above  and see if there are noises or artifacts as seen in your above photo. Avoid uploading images only which need minimum post processing. At adobe images having post processing get rejected mostly.

So try taking photo at various ISO and shutter speed whatever settings available in your camera and submit. You can learn about it i various photography blogs.

As you name claims, there are quite no doubts on what you say.

For stock images it is important that the one buying your image has all its options therefore he should be able to buy a perfect image with little postprocessing as he will add to that on his own. (The buyer may also be a she ...)
