    Technical Issues:

    • Out of focus
    • Chromatic aberration

    • Noise and washed out colours:

    • Need for geometric corrections:

    • Overprocessed / oversaturated

    • Different other artefacts

    IP problems:

    •   Logos:

    Missing model releases: When you have people in the image, you need from each of them a signed model release.

      Read the Stock Contributor User Guide.  Take some photography courses, join a photography club.  Learn all you can about using Lightroom / Photoshop to minimally correct digital photo defects when possible.

       

      Adobe Stock customers expect the highest visual and technical quality for use in commercial projects.

      That's a lot of photos to review, but generally the look overprocessed and too saturated.  Some are overexposed and the solar flares are usually not wanted in your submissions.  You would also need to straighten the vertical lines of the buildings.

       

      Not a technical issue, but any of the photos with recognisable people would require model releases as well.

       

      I hope this helps,

        Most are over saturated and have leaning verticals.

        1. Adobe always give a rejection reason. What was it?

        2. You did not show the image. Please share the original file exactly as you submitted it.

          Adobe Stock says "it contains one or more technical issues, so we can't accept it into our collection."
