I recently had a batch of dove hunting images accepted. One of the images sold almost immediately and has sold numerous times since. The image is now the third image that comes up when you search for dove hunting on Adobe. Even though all of the other images I submitted are similar, none of them appear in a search for dove hunting until the sixth page. In the meantime, other images that appear on the first six pages when you search for dove hunting are images of sharks, scuba diving, Hungarian partridge, pheasants, skin diving, hunters shooting everything but doves, pike, foxes, bait balls, eagles, coral reefs, seals, coi, marlin, amberjack, fly fishing, cats and that is just on the first page! What in the heck do those topics have to do with dove hunting? If I was a prospective buyer in search of a dove hunting image and didn't see any dove hunting images after five or six pages I'd be gone. Dove season begins September across the country so there might be prospectiev buyers looking for dove huntign images. It would seem that if Adobe did a better job of editing and sorting images it would benefit Adobe and perspective contributors. This post may get flagged or my post deleted because I haven't figured out how to delete my name and e-mail address from posts after several requests and attempts at asking how to do it. I can't just delete my e-mail address from my profile. I trust the community will find this post as constructive criticism that others have been equally frustated by.
