Expensive garbage

I don't understand the title? The red saturation is up too high, it makes the pavement looks strange; overall the shot isn't really very interesting I'm afraid, it doesn't look like art. The focus looks to be Ok but it's a bit hard to tell with the strong colour processing.

I KNEW that some people would like it! May the bold be rewarded, whether they be "right" or not. By the way, I have an old powershot I-don't-know-what-model that generates images much like your original no matter what I do. Not sure what's wrong with it, but it does some delightfully interesting things sometimes. Like a really screwed-up roll of expired film . . . remember those days?

Truth be told, I thought this WAS textile, not necessarily a pillowcase, something a bit heavier like a table cloth. I didn't imagine it to be embroidered, but simply printed. Sorry for the misinterpretation, Mariuca. I gave you a 4. I do prefer your original.

Definitely has the feeling of a classic still life and I agree the front slice is a bit too oof for me too, but wow! what colours and tones to get in-camera! That's the mark of someone who knows their stuff :)
