Little dark and uninteresting in my opinion... Could use something else amidst the straw. 4 sjgleah |

A bit flat for me but good focus |

Nice color, random design. meets the criteria of the challenge, but it could have been a little more creative. |

This is very well in focus. I think a lower camera perspective would give it more depth, and it would also serve as a good background for something with a smooth texture and bright color. karmat |

This is a fine photo of straw. It does fit the challenge, but there are few more considerations than just those two. Two more would be: Would I want this photo hanging on my wall? (nice/interesting to look at) Honestly no, I wouldn't. Second is my guess at your level of effort. Let's just say you creatively hid a message in the straw, like I love my wife, yada, yada, yada, whatever. From all appearances, you walked up to this patch of straw, and shot. Finally, the shot is a bit overly dark overall. If this was to convey some sort of message, I missed it. 5 Swash |

This is nice but lacks visual impact for me. It becomes a little monotonous and needed something else to give it tension or some juxtaposition. |

Composition4 Originality6 Technical Aspects4 Meets Challenge5 Total Score5
For those that are just learning, like me.
Composition: Scoring in this area is based on basic composition of a picture and includes the rule of thirds, balance, cropping, and curved and diagonal lines. Subject matter that does not lend itself to the picture or otherwise unwanted is also considered here.
Originality: Scoring in this area is based on pictures or concepts that I have seen, as well as how much effort you have invested in the picture. Usually a little something that sets it aside from a snapshot. Does it make me want to come back for another look? You know things like that.
Technical Aspects: Focus, exposure, lighting, and other special effects (done by the camera), and post processing are all considered in this category.
Meets Challenge: This is based on my interpretation of if you, have/have not, met the challenge. This is fairly simple but quite important for this site.
There are many sites that can give you assistance in achieving better skills in photography, but I think the best way to learn is to take pictures and show them to other people. Believe me when it is a good one you will know it.
Good luck!

without a secondary light source, this potentially cool image falls flat. Spend a little more time with the lighting and angle. Drop something interesting in one corner and you'll have a nicer shot. |

i think a sideways light angle could haveb brought this texture more to life |

Would have been nice to have some kind of contrasting color maybe |

Very jackson pollack meets jolly green giant. I love the muted colors in the straw and leaves! |

I believe they're actually pine needles, aren't they? I think maybe some depth would help this picture a lot - a different perspective instead of straight down. |

straw and leaves, actually. while this meets the texture challenge, it's simply not a very interesting shot to me. there's no central point and it's too much tone in tone. sorry. -- gr8photos (2) |

I think I would have like to have seen more contrast in this photo. |
