Initial thoughts
I was surprised this ranked so low – I gave it a 7 and think it’s an attractive image.

Composition/ Content
I really like the strong lines in this image – in particular the beaded strip. I think the way It’s flanked by parallel lines from the stitching and edges of denim is great. I like the inclusion of the circle – such a different texture, colour and shape – but would prefer that it weren’t cropped as it is but more fully included in the frame.
The contrast between textures is what I really like – the denim itself, the beads and the metal offer real variety in what is such a tiny part of the pair of jeans.
I would have to agree with a comment below about DOF – In this kind of macro I’d rather see the whole frame sharp – instead of having the lower left out of focus as it is.

Camera Work - Technical
Good colour and detail capture. Exposure seems good. See above regarding DOF.

Digital Processing - Technical
I would guess very little has been done to this, it certainly doesn’t look over processed and I can’t see any compression artifacts.

Fits The Challenge
Yes.

It makes for a pretty interesting macro. I'm glad that you didn't oversaturate this like so many people would have. Nice composition with the angle making it a more intersting shot.

Very good macro. Very clear and detailed. I really like the button in the upper left corner and the beads flowing to the right lower corner. Great execution - details make the difference. Great job. PTL 9

I love denim blue.

Great texture. It loses focus toward the bottom. This might be better if the whole image was sharp, since it's so close up. muckpond

Nice

Nor sure if I like the button showing... it competes with the beads. Nice use of denim!

done well just no wow factor of any kind.

Nice. I like this, good photo, clean, clear, crisp. Blue denim....Cool. I guess I would of liked the full Lee button, but then that's me. Nice job. Justine

Ok. What does the seed bead have to do with the denum. I am lost.
