Intellectual Property Concerns for Photos

[lukaboguszewski]

Hi everyone,
I had a few images rejected on Adobe Stock, and I was informed the reason was related to intellectual property rights for the following files: DSC00980.jpg, DSC01366.jpg, and DSC01757_PM.jpg. Could someone explain what specific issues might cause a photo to be flagged for intellectual property concerns? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your help!

Unless someone can spot IP violations that I'm overlooking, I think the moderator pushed the wrong buttons. I believe exposure is the main issue.

1st photo. Name on houseboat right corner. But, the photo is under exposed.

2nd photo. Shop name on lower left side.

3rd photo. I would remove "hotel" on the canopy. Remove the writing on the red banner and remove the "P" on the boat. Also, lighten up the shadows.

Good heavens, they were everywhere! (Note to self: don't critique images 5 minutes after waking up in the morning.)

Regarding IP, it is probably because of these issues. Adobe is very careful when it comes to the names of buildings, boats, and so on.

IMHO, “Hotel” is not IP related, that's only a word. But this here may be:

In addition, there is a lot of noise in this asset.

This one is full of IP related issues:

And guys needing a model release:

In addition,    you have obvious quality issues:

Eventually this one:

Some of the flags:

Flags are always critical, as they could be to show a country, a region, a city or a company.

This file also contains quality issues.

Thanks a lot for all the feedback. I’ll work on fixing it. Didn’t expect there to be so many issues. I’ve already cleaned up a lot of those elements in the files, but looks like it wasn’t enough. 🙂

Sure, street pictures are often full with IP related issues, even if the "streets" are water streets...

But I think that all of the pictures have equally important, quality issues. The moderator will only refuse with one reason. For them, there is no need to cheack all of the asset.
