Hi Adobe Stock Community. As a newbie to this arena I'm trying to understand the quality guidelines that dictate whther any image is accepted or not. If anyone has the time to look and comment on the photo attached it would be great to get some feedback.

Having looked at the example closely I'm guessing it's because the depth of field doesn't quite cover the nose and mouth? Although my opinion's biased, I thought that this slight softening created a more natural effect rather than 'technically correct' version.

Many thanks...

The rug pattern is wonky, too. As if the rug is crumpled up on itself.

Don't you just love AI mistakes?

This is not the original size picture as submitted, I guess. Some of the errors cannot be detected if you downsize for the forum here.

Correct it's not however, the feedback received so far has proved enough to
give me an idea of how stringent the moderators quite rightly are.

Unfortunately, they aren't stringent enough with some AI contributors. Although I'm hoping the AI assets that are called being called out to this day were uploaded in the early days of AI being accepted by Adobe. I believe the mindset of the moderators, prior to proper training, was that, "It's AI, and it's not going to be perfect, so let's give it a pass." But AI or not, it does need to be perfect. Also, though we've pointed out multiple errors, it only takes one to result in a rejection. The image you posted is good overall, and it even stood up to remaining relatively sharp at 200%. So you're on the right track.
