This image got a 9 from me as well. The textures in this image are great. I can almost smell the old and worn out baseball. Great lighting as well.

hmm.. I gave this a 9. I thought that it really demonstrated old, idk, it just gives me that kind of roughed up, sentimental old baseball feeling

the red laces look too vivid for an 'old' ball?

Wow, great texture! Plus, it really brings out the nostalgia of the times I played baseball.. Definitely my fav!

I like the texture.

I love the texture that you captured on this old baseball. Looks like it was well used and loved. Nice composition too.

Good idea...

Wonderful job with the perspective, lighting, shadows, texture, colors ... Great shot.

Nice textures

Yep, that's old. The red is a touch too bright, though, to convince me completely. Not sure what to recommend, but it just doesn't work for me yet. Sorry.

I love this! So simple, yet so interesting and effective for this challenge. And it doesn't hurt that I love baseball!!!! Go Astros ! :)

Nice! Artistic, weathered, yet you know what it is right away.

nice and simple, great composition, i like it

I like this but it seems a little to abrasive, maybe the contrast or the sharpness is a little too much for me.

i like the composition and the abstract lines, but can't lock onto any detail / sharpness.
