I don't understand why this was rejected for Quality Issues? It was accepted on other sites.2024-08-- 00001.JPG2024-08-- 00001-2.JPG

In the first image, the hand is out of focus. Both images should perhaps have been captured from an angle rather than straight on to see more of the equipment. DOF is a bit too shallow.

Hi @gerryb70481725 ,

The first picture has motion blur. Your shutter speed was too slow, hence, could not freeze the motion. I also believe the depth was a bit too shallow.

The depth of field for the second picture was also too shallow, hence, the subject is not completely in focus..

Best wishes

The image, to me, is poorly cropped. I would like to see the entire hand. The second image would be more interest if photographed at a 45 degree angle or from the front.'

Having images accepted on other sites is no guarantee they will be accepted on Adobe Stock.

This is a great example of a question I have always had. Is the brightness of the sparks and the reflection on the screw heads ok? I always darken things like that because I felt I was being rejected if they were as bright as I believed they should be.

Trust your Histogram. Avoid 100% white and 100% black and you'll be good to go.

That's what I started out doing, but then I changed my mind because of a phenomenon that happens on occassion. Do you ever use Lightroom Classic? I use it mostly. I send images to Photoshop if a correction cannot be made in Lightroom. I have had a number of occassions where an image, that I was positive to be flawless, was rejected. Upon re-examination,  I saw there was RED ( highlight alert), when I know it was not there prior to submission. Sometimes, it happens when I'm still editing. With some images, depending upon where I'm clickling, the red will flash on and off. If I see that happen, I have learned to back off a bit more, just to be safe.. I have come to assume it's a flaw in the program. I wonder if anyone else has had it happen?

My trust in the software is somewhat broken...

I use Lightroom Classic a lot. When editing, the highlight alert may happen. If you reduce exposure and reduce the highlights, the highlight warning disappears, but then you increase the contrast and alter the tone curve, the highlight warning reappears; all of these actions influence exposure. It isn't a flaw in the programme. It is something you have to be aware of when editing/enhancing.

Thanks, but there is no highlight warning when I export the image, period. I understand how to process images. It has been determined that it's likely due to the "color space" I've been using.

What color space ARE you using? Adobe has stated that the color space should always be sRGB. They won't reject an asset if it's something else, but that's what Adobe says should be used.

Not sure what "red" you are talking about. Do you mean those little arrows on the left and right hand side at the top of the histogram? If you see a red arrow, the red channel clipping; blue, then the blue channel is clipping, etc.

Hi @ImaRetiredTeacher ,

Once it's not blown out highlights that will cause detail lost, it's ok. Your histogram will help you to determine the intensity of the highlights. Usually if you get the in-camera exposure correct, there's not an issue with over-exposed highlights.

Hello,

A different pair of eyes - I also think the most probable reason for rejection is the focus - The hand should be in focus, and the whole bench grinder should be in focus, not just the front part. It would help if you increased your f stop as well;  4.8 is a bit too shallow to get everything in focus.
