Quite new to this site, quality issues, just few tips for me to understand what's wrong ?

[Pascal F.]

Hi everyone, quite new to the Adobe Stock Contributor world, I've submitted some photos. Some have been accepted (and sold ! A true miracle), and some have been rejected, most of them for "Quality issue" reason.

And I'd like to understand what's wrong with this rejected photos.

Photo is a hobby, I'm not a pro at all, and I wanna learn what could be improved about them.

Thanks in advance for your time on this matter.

Just asking again to be able to understand, any idea why the lion has been denied ? (KRZ_0455.jpg) 

Thanks

Some guesses: the green grass could be toned down. It's a little TOO green, and somewhat unnaturally so. From a personal standpoint (not necessarily that of a moderator), it might also be too tightly cropped.

Mostly the grass in front of the mouth and also the cropping and background I would guess. In stock images tight cropping is not good because the customers want to do the cropping themselves. Better with lots of space around the motif than no space.

Ok thanks to both of you. I'll try to start again from the original photo.

With more practice and guidance, I think you could be a really good photographer. Search the internet - YouTube and others or join a photo club/school. And last - but not least - look closely at the photos at Adobe Stock.

Remember to write shallow depth of field and/or selective focus in your caption or keywords when you upload an image like the one with the lizard.

Good point, thanks for the advide.
