Hello,
In my view, your images are too dark! And probably, the toning in the landscape picture.

Examine the histogram from your photos. The pixels are shoved to the left. That means underexposed. That does not mean rejection but, the shadow clipping indicator is "on". That is a reason for rejection.

Images with clipped areas aren't commercially viable. Large areas of solid black don't print well.

on purpose. this photo was taken 6am. winter night. it is intended to be key photo, as we don't have sun. just the street lamps on the right.

I can only repeat what I said. It's underexposed, and moderators will generally reject underexposed images. This might have a place in an art gallery or on stock sites that sell the same, but Adobe stock is looking for assets that are technically correct with respect to exposure, composition, a lack of noise and grain, etc.

Be that as it may, it's still too dark. And one can also argue about the colour temperature. These photos are for stock, not an art gallery.
