Quality Issues for Photos

[lukaboguszewski]

Hello,
I recently submitted several photos to Adobe Stock, but some of them were rejected due to quality issues. Specifically, the following images were flagged: DSC01177.jpg, DSC01009.jpg, and DSC01303.jpg. Could anyone provide more detailed information on what aspects of the quality might have led to the rejection? I would appreciate any feedback to help me improve my future submissions.
Thank you in advance!

DSC01009 -

It looks like you used a slow shutter speed because it also looks like you have camera shake:

Exposure:

Even though it is a silhouette, the photo could be brighter. It's a bit too weighted on the dark side.

And for the 'famous' canal shot, I dare say the white balance - corrected below:

As a guide, don't tone your photos; just try to enhance the colours without adding extra toning as you have done here!

The buyer can add their toning.

If your design contains text or a logo, it may not pass the screening.

DSC01303

It's a beautiful sunset, but there are many dark areas, so it probably wouldn't pass the inspection.

Thanks a lot for all the feedback. I’ll work on fixing it.
