Hi:

Not sure if this is stock-worthy, but would like feedback anyway?

Thank you much,

I like it. But for stock nothing immediately hits me like "I could use this for..." so I don't think it will sell like crazy. Looks more like art to me but I'd say it's worth trying.

I would definitely upload it.  I have a much worse one of chairs, probably one of the worst images in my portfolio and it has sold a few times so I think that this one could to quite well.   I like the composition of it.

What I would do is to crop it just below that window in the right side. Then I would play a bit with some layers masks and lighting effects to emphasise the light on the first chairs and then how it dissipates on the last chairs. Or I would even the light on all chairs as much as possible. Either way, I would "pop" it up a bit.
If you have the raw of the file try a HDR from at least 3 exposures, play around see how it goes.

Good shot.

I would definately upload it and agree with alan with that you need to play with the lighting a bit to really bring the chairs out more

I think it is stock material and has potential to sell ok.
You can be surprised sometimes how some images sell!
