I think the corkboard texture could have been played out with a little more creativity :) = 4 - jmsetzler

This is interesting texture :) I think a little tighter crop to remove the empty space at the upper right and lower left corner could be a minor improvement... good work :) = 8 - jmsetzler

the quicker picker upper :) critique... take a look at this image... as you can see, there is a sharply focused segment that extends from left to right just slightly below the center of the frame. The foreground in front of this strip and the background behind this strip are out of focus. This area that is IN focus is within your depth of field. This indicates a low F number (wide aperture) setting on your camera. I don't know what kind of camera was used here, but a larger F number (smaller aperture) in the aperture priority mode (or manual mode) would extend this plane of focus through a larger portion of your image. It also appears that the camera lens may be resting on the surface. If this is the case, raising the camera up a few inches and pointing it down at a slightly lower angle would allow the foreground to be in better focus as well. Your camera has a minimum distance from the lens in which it can focus effectively, regardless of the aperture settings. I also believe that a different orientation of this paper towel would create a better composition... diagonal lines would be more eye catching than the horizontal and vertical lines here... = 5 - jmsetzler

excellent texture... excellent choice of subject as well... The only critique I have for this photo is a personal taste of mine... I would like to have seen this shot done from the exact same vantage point with the camera rotated about 15 or 20 degrees to the left to create a stronger diagonal in the image... great shot :) = 9 - jmsetzler

this is an interesting black and white... I love the composition, but it loosk a little over processed.. i'm not sure if it's sharpness or level adjustments... = 7 - jmsetzler

this is ineteresting texture... I wish the background around the outside of the bird design was a little darker to offer some more contrast in the iimage... The lighting may need to be reduced a little bit as well... = 6 - jmsetzler

You Pick the Texture?

interesting array of textures here... I can't say that the image holds a lot of subjective value for me though... = 5 - jmsetzler

very nice detail in your texture... I would love to see this rope spitting the frame diagonally rather than horizontally... good work :) = 7 - jmsetzler

very nice photo.. i'm curious why you decided to crop one small corner of this subject? I think the texture here is great but I'm stumbling on the framing... i can't make up my mind if a tighter crop would have been better than clipping a small corner... = 8 - jmsetzler
