Why is my photo marked for lack of AESTHETIC OR COMMERCIAL APPEAL OF IMAGE?

[alrzsh]

HI!
I recently uploaded a photograph of a pair of sunglasses shot in low-key lighting conditions as you can see below; but it got rejected. Could you please clarify the reason for me? Thanks in advance

What was the reason Adobe gave? There is always a reason given in the rejection notice.

My guess is "exposure".

[alrzsh]

as i stated in the title, the reason is "aesthetic or commercial appeal of image"

That just means Adobe don't think this particular photo would sell well. But don't get discouraged, take it as a challenge to improve what you submit.

Pretty much what Enio siad, also I notice there is a logo - RayBan- so you would need a property release - I think.

Thank you! This seems to be the correct answer

Of course the issue is the logo.

[Enio99]

Then Adobe should have given that reason, not lack of aesthetic or commercial value like it says in this case.

It's also the logo, but it's just not done very well.  You can see the softbox and you can clearly see the camera in the reflection.  You've lost definition in parts of the rim as well.
