I like your idea, and you captured it well. You're going to get nailed to the wall because it isn't a 'real' texture (so they say), but what do they know?

Total Score6

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!

This is a good capture of the dog in motion - but I wish he was further in the frame and not running off to the right side as it draws my eye to much to that direction. This was a stretch for me in if it meet the challenge. I originally scored it a 4 - I would rather have seen a shot of the wave meeting the shore where more texture was visible, but I checked with my local weather guru who assured me that fog does have texture so I am bumping up the score to a 6.

I am more interested in the texture of dog. I generaly like to see subjects that are moving, moving into the frame. ie: if the dog were placed at the left of the frame and running up the shore.
