1. I'm not Alamy. 

2. Does Alamy sell similar pictures to your ones that get rejected? And do you see much noise in them? Otherwise, you could potentially have a look at Topaz denoise.

Ok Sorry sure that you are not Alamy. 

Yes they do. For funny reasons they get my images also over agencies where they get acepted and sold, when i send them directly they get rejected. Strange world.

That's easy: both news and agency submissions are not being checked for image quality.

(Alamy has stated that initially they may spot check agency images.)

Underneath such image there will be a line:

This image could have imperfections as it’s either historical or reportage.

 

Some clients don't care, others may click away immediately.

We don't know. And I'm not going to run a a test to find out. But someone else might.
