My Photos are Being Rejected for Technical Issues. But I'm not sure what the issues are...

[Tomatefotos2000]

Hi, Would you guys mind taking a look at these photos I submitted? None of them are being accepted due to "technical issues" but those issues are unspecified. I'm not sure if its the megapixel, resolution, etc...? I appreciate any responses! Thanks!

Sunsets and clouds are low % sellers because Adobe Stock already contains millions & millions of perfect clouds & sunsets.

Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects.  See links below for details on what is required.

In addition to Nancy's comments regarding the prospect of actually selling sunsets/sunrises, here are the obvious technical issues:

1) over-processed, over-saturated, artifacts, poor focus

2) Artifacts and sensor spots throughout the sky

3) Over-processed, unnatural colors, artifacts, noise, poor focus

You should continue to take photographs of beautiful sunsets for your own enjoyment, to practice your photography skills, and to share on social media; but spending time uploading them to Adobe Stock is probably not justified.

Hello,

The composition is not so good either. Not really good for stock photos.
