Too bad "all" of the fine detail got lost in the compression. Really like the full-size original with so much detail. I don't expect this to do well because of it's abstract (incomprehensible) nature. Over 4.5 please!

Greetings from the critique club. I'm sorry this image didn't score very well. From your comments I see that you predicted a low score because of its abstract nature and I must disagree. Abstracts can be very lovely and score very well here when done well. What I feel this shot is missing is any semblance of composition. As a photographer, it is your job to drive the viewers eye through your image with your careful choice of composition. With this image, since there is no COI (center of interest) - which doesn't have to be in the center btw - I find my eye wandering right off the image almost immediately. I agree that the texture is nice, but perhaps you could have found a swirly spot, or added another element or something to improve the composition overall.

These comments are meant to be helpful, not hurtful and I hope they are.

Good luck,
Cindi

I think you need a more difinitive subject. Meets the challenge but I can only give 4 for this.

The texture is a bit too fine for my liking, I would have gone in closer.
