That's just how I felt yesterday afternoon. Nice capture. Nice idea. Great color contrasts, with excellent detail and DOF. <7>

humorous rendition of the theme. cropping part of the broom out doesn't quite make it work for me, though

Although I don̢۪t say this is a bad picture I have scored this low.
Low in my book is not extremely low, but I guess there will be other people thinking the same way I do who don̢۪t leave a comment.
Don̢۪t take this the wrong way, this is my own opinion, and I am trying to let you understand what some voters may think.

In my opinion this does not meet the challenge, the description of the challenge: Take a picture that captures an emotion.
I looked hard, but I don̢۪t see an emotion. This could be my fault, but that̢۪s the reason why I voted lower as I would normaly do.

I think this might have been a little stronger if you had someone leaning on the broom exhausted, with a large floor in the foreground, or taken from behind with a large background floor.

Title says the sand is the most important element of photo. Seeing there is more sand than pebble I think you missed the challenge discriptio.

Meets challenge discription........5
Image meets definition of Minimalism....................10 Right on if you were talking about sand, beach, ocean, and etc.
Technical.............................................................10
Artistic.................................................................9 subjectively speaking I would have framed this a bit differently, but hey.....your the artist....Nice image overall in my opinion..

Average score.............................8 Yes this in a minimalist image.

Tough time deciding if the stone or the sand itself should be the subject.

beautiful study of lines and textures.

Comment by RolandB:
I like the strong use of line here. The shadows and highlights almost draw the eye to the stone. I would have liked to see the stone a bit more clearly. Has a very Japanese look. Meets the challenge well.
Second Pass: Bumping up.
