Hello,

I would like to hearing to all of you.

I have sent many X-ray images to SS and nearly all are accepted. These images are most popular in my portfolio, and I also receive the enhance download from them.

But in the recently they are all rejected with the comment from inspector that:

Not Approved:
Composition--Limited commercial value due to framing, cropping, and/or composition. Please see <a href="http://buzz.shutterstock.com/rejection-reasons/why-images-get-rejected-for-composition">Shutterbuzz</a> for more info

In my opinion, the X-ray images are the image of specific organ that has problem. So it must be close up only that organ. Why it is critiqued that it has problem from composition.

I have search in SS, and see that other X-ray images that are accepted such as chest, skull, shoulder, etc., are also close up only that organ(s).
And some chest X-ray images that are accepted were alternate for left-right too.

I have asked the inspectors about these problems in Submit ask of SS, but no any answer reply.

I would like to hearing your opinion/comment about my problems.

Thank you in advance.

Panithan.

All I can say is that person has one messed up leg!

As to the composition of the shots are you showing the entire e-ray in the shot and is that how the x-ray looks? I am saying this because the right side seems to be cut off and cropped tight on the right side. Perhaps this is what the reviewer was referencing with the rejection.

Maybe straighten the vertical - same principle as a wonky horizon I guess?

x2. take a photo of the xray as if you were copying a painting or something. Include the entire thing and make the edges of the xray the edges of the image. The visible background bit at the top and the crooked alignment don't add anything to the image, do they? If you want background showing then have it all the way around but better yet, just limit yourself to the edges of the xray.

I wouldn't zoom in any more than you have to. I think that in a case like this the fracture is pretty obvious.

From a hospital I think. Can be found on the trash I believe.

Do they need a model release? ;-)

All x-ray facilities have a collection of films which are not of any diagnostic quality, but still show certain parts of anatomy. These films might be too light or dark, or the patient might not be positioned correctly, but a layperson would not even notice that. These are x-rays which will be recycled for their silver content. As long as all identifying information (name, DOB, etc) is removed from the x-ray film, there should be no problem with donating them

Since I broke my finger recently I've been in and out of X-ray and I can assure you it's all digital these days. The sensor plate is remarkable: about 16x24 inches, wireless and sensitive over the entire area of the plate. I feel like an amateur with my APS-C sensor of 1/100th of the area. LOL.

Thank you very much for your opinion and suggestion.

The whole X-ray film is in the shot, no any cropping or cutting.

The messed up leg is the gauze bandage that support the fracture site.

I'm working in the hospital, that I think the x-ray/or CT images is the rare photo and SS should like to accept.

I never think before that it is LCV.

Thank you.
