Hi, I would like to know the reason for the rejection of my photos. I have attached photos for your review. Could you please clearly mention what is wrong with these images? Also, could you provide some feedback? Thank you.

Hi,

it looks like the Highligts are a little blown out.

Before you submit, please review the submission guidelines carefully and compare your work with other Stock inventory. To be accepted, your work should be as good or better than what's already represented in your keyword category.

Can you please guide me little bit more about highlights you mentioned. Do you mean some parts of image is blurry? Can you please point out specific portion of image to give as a example. Thankyou

As @Henrik Heigl mentioned, the highlights are blown out and lack detail, but I also think the depth of field is too shallow. And at the risk of sounding harsh, leaves? Even flowers are a hard sell on Adobe Stock these days and are rejected more often than not. But keep trying!

Your first:

This is just a blown out blub:

The DOF does not look and feel naturally, so I think that this is fake DOF done by the camera software. That rarely works good enough for stock.

Your second:

1. blown out highlights – detail got destroyed

2. kind of strange blur, like applying a blur filter (that may also be a fake DOF side effect).

Your third:

Again blown out patches, with no detail left. There are many more.

Your pictures are also missing contrast and are exposing slightly artefacts, that are typical for phone cameras.

I also think that your pictures are badly cropped. You should pay more attention to image composition.

Arrows: leaves cropped out; cloud: uninteresting mud.

The info the other's have answered should give you an idea as what is wrong.

In addition to the blown highlights, which you can confirm by looking at the histogram, the images are poorly composed and lack commercial appeal. This is not the type of image that Adobe's Buyers are looking for. Review all of the info on Adobe stock Learn and Support help pages before uploading any more images.

Compare your work with current Stock inventory. 

https://stock.adobe.com/search?k=green%20leaves

These are important questions to ask before you decide what to submit & what to discard.

• You're competing with over 19 million green leaves.  🤔
• Are yours really better than what Stock has to offer?
• Are your leaves special enough to get noticed?
• As a customer, would you buy these leaves over what's available?
• Do you have other images that would sell better?

Hello,

Another thing you really have to think about - especially for Adobe Stock is your composition - how you arrange everything together in a frame. Your composition needs some work!

User guide:

Exposure:

And, think carefully about its commercial use!!

As it stands, I don't think that they are very useful!
