Rejection for the protection of intellectual property

Rejection for the protection of intellectual property is a crucial step in maintaining originality and trust across all industries, including the vacation rental market. Just like creators protect their ideas, companies such as MG Vacation Rentals safeguard their brand identity and service quality. By respecting intellectual property rights, MG Vacation Rentals ensures that their listings, images, and descriptions remain authentic and exclusive. This protection helps customers trust that every experience offered is genuine, well-managed, and not copied from others — building long-term credibility and confidence in their vacation services.

This is what you're competing with in Stock:

https://stock.adobe.com/search?k="metro"

https://stock.adobe.com/search?k="public+transportation"

To get accepted, your work should be better than what Stock is selling now.

Looks like you've darkened and made the sky more blue and some of that editing has been applied to the edges of the buildings.

In general, you need a property release if you want to submit real-life architectural objects like these or you need to prove documentally that they are clearly in public domain. When in doubt, moderators will mostly likely reject transportation and buildings. Given the questionable and limited commerical value of these images, it is more reasonable to put efforts into "easier" subjects for stock submission which are free of these obligations, I think.

"Public transit and unique places 

You need permission from public transit systems to photograph or film on location. Also, like other products and services, most metro lines have trademarks and copyright protections on signage, maps, logos, route indicators, buildings, and more.

Whether your images and videos include public transit systems or other unique places, you must remove all trademarks and copyright-protected content before you submit them to Adobe Stock. Here’s a scrubbed photo that would not need a property release:"

However, on Adobe Stock, you can find 803 photos for the query "Schwebebahn Wuppertal", most of them under the standard license, some under editorial — and the difference between them is not always obvious.

By the way, here's a photo under the standard license with a clearly visible MediaMarkt logo: https://stock.adobe.com/images/bahnhof-schwebebahn-wuppertal/537300825?prev_url=detail

I guess, as of now, the smartest approach would be either to remove all Schwebebahn logos or upload those photos as editorial.

And the photo with the Baumsche Fabrik will probably only be accepted as editorial anyway.

The tram cannot be the main subject of your photos.
