I found out about Shutterstock, a service where you submit photo to it and get paid when your photo is downloaded when I read through a photographer Andy Lim's blog-Travel & Landscape Photography." Ya, I took great photo also, by joining this program maybe I can earn some pocket money." I told myself. But the truth is cruel. I'm a new member and my account is still under review.In oder to gain a normal account status, I have to receive approval on at least 7 of my first 10 photos submitted to the website. Not a difficult task, I think. But the result was shocking. All the photo I submitted were rejected and worst, my account was suspended for 30 days!!
They list down the reason why my photos has been rejected in the e-mail:
3110084 Rejected:
3110085 Rejected: Composition--Limited commercial value due to framing, cropping, and/or composition.
3110086 Rejected: Lighting Problems--Purple fringe, blown highlights or lenses flare.
3110087 Rejected:
3110088 Rejected: Noise--Noise, film grain, over-sharpening, or artifacts at full size.
3110089 Rejected: Noise--Noise, film grain, over-sharpening, or artifacts at full size.
3110090 Rejected:
3110091 Rejected:
3110092 Rejected: Poor Lighting--Poor or uneven lighting, or shadows. White balance may be incorrect.
3110093 Rejected: Focus--Your image is not in focus or focus is not located where we feel it works best.
Not even one of my photo was approved!?!?
I'm shock. But I won't give up. I'm still new in photography. Practice and more practice, I believe someday I can become a professional photographer also.
