Hello Flor Scherf ,

Please find attached some non-technical notes I have made.

Apologies in advance for handwriting on your work, I found it quicker and was with the sole purpose of providing some help beyond the "plain" rejection legend we all might have get once or more in our work. Photos are assumed to be yours and NO plagiarism intentions of any kind at all are pretended from my part. I hope this contribution helps to cover one part of that "big void" of multiple possible rejection reasons.

I am not an Adobe employee nor anybody to convince you about anything, I am just a volunteering dude trying to help people blowing off some steam when their work is rejected.

In other words, trying to provide an "out of the box" perspective. My contribution is with good intentions only and hopefully will produce at least one smile.

For more formal and professional comments listen to the guys that clearly know what they are talking about.

Keep shooting, learning, observing, and specially, having fun!

Cheers,

Vences

Hello,

For me, the main issue is your composition, and then there are problems with exposure, white balance- colour temperature, etc.

From your metadata of the pics, it is from a smartphone, so that will also cause some issues. Images from smartphones tend no to do so well on Adobe Stock. You have to compete with high-end cameras.

Adobe are looking for top quality images.

Have a read of this. It's a brief guide on image quality.

FlorScherf,

In addition to what is being said, your highlights are too high and not sufficient exposure, thus resulting in some areas very bright, while others are underexposed.

Best wishes
