Hi, I want to submit some videos I took on a journey to London, so there are some shots from Westminster Abbey and Big Ben. I have seen other photos from these buildings on Adobe Stock... what I should put in "Recognisable property"? If I put YES, I have to submit a form, but, How I should fill it out in this case? 

 

Thank you in advance

Recognisable property is property, where you need a property release. It's a bit unlucky. You will need to check if you need a release. If you see other assets in the database, it may well be that they had a release.

Such old buildings are usually not subject to IP protections, so a property release is probably not required; however, there are exceptions, some of which are listed in the help pages. My experience is that it is virtually impossible to capture a scene in London without any recognizable people. You would need model releases for the people in your images,

With video, it should be quite impossible. Or you are very far away. With photos, ou could work around, but it is complicated. Mulktiple exposures, long exposures with a ND filter....
