I don't get it now. None of my images are being approved. All rejected due to image quality. Please someone help me, what is wrong with my images here?

Work on your cropping and composition some. For instance I find this iis a better landscape form and better composition.

Noted, thank you. So its ok to add things to the image that werent originally there? Because i removed the footprints and "mess" in the sand to clear up this image a bit. Will Work on that though thank you.

Slanted horizon line.

Thank you for the feedback. I didnt crop this image though, its how i took the photo. Might take wider photos from now on, I think this was also done from a cellphone in 2018. I will work on the suggestions you have given though thank you much appreciated.

AdobeStock also checks for things like whiteout, blackout, underexposure, and overexposure.

It's a good idea to retouch using Lightroom or Photoshop so that it falls within the standard range.

You also need to check for blur, out-of-focus, and noise.

Enlarge the image to 100% on the monitor to check.

The image is black and crushed. Noise is noticeable.

Sunset on the beach
