I have no idea what "very good" means to you for Shutterstock sales, but I think your main problem on Adobe Stock is probably keywords. The few I checked were pretty bad - not descriptive of what's in the image; repetitive - horse is shown twice for this image of a pig in a dress; not ordered so the first 7 keywords are the most important.



Keywords on the above are:

horse animal grass farm pasture horse meadow nature field mare animal grazing green summer white foal mammal black brown equine rural pony fast horse beautiful domestic

Assuming for the sake of argument that someone was looking for a pig in a dress in a field, your keywords would not help them find this image.

Edited to add that I looked at another from the above series and the keywords were different, but equally bad:

dog animal grass pet green puppy sheep horse canino white meadow nature farm mammal cute animal field young grazing pasture outdoors agriculture weimaraner dog black

Your keywording is terrible. That's why.

If you're using Adobe's automatic keywording, you're destine to make nothing at Adobe Stock.

Today, I have a sale, which is the figure of the person who passed the review yesterday.

I am going to be blunt here- your still life images are just dump on table and shoot.  Flowers - nothing that's really amazing which you will need to compete with the other million images. People on white - just changing the angle differently to get more volume will not cut it anymore.  Overall, nothing really to offer the buyers that isn't already in the 200 millions images...
