Artist:
how many downloads did you received with that portfolio?

ShadySue:
Your keywords are poor: both keywords relevant to images not used, and keywords used which are irrelevant to photo.

For example: https://www.shutterstock.com/fr/image-photo/growth-flower-plant-spring-time-698123398?src=FgxJu9u3MLilH1sykHFR8w-3-64
Though for some reason SS took me to the French site and the French keywording seemed to be worse than the English. The English keywording is only 'quite poor' - but for example, you haven't said what the exact species of that plant is. It's not a vector or cartoon, it doesn't really show gardening, it's not eco or ecology really, there are no leaves visible, nor seeds nor seedlings, no stages, tree, wood, etc etc.

And that yellow thing in the background is doing the image no favours at all. You have it nicely out of focus, but you need the colour to be neutral or at least natural. At the moment, the yellow thing distracts from the actual subject of the image (whatever it is).

Keywords.....Are Probably More important than the Images. You can go in and change them now. I use and highly recommend This sites keyword generator.http://microstockgroup.com/tools/keyword.php
