Yes, these guys really do have lots of bumps and patterns. Good seeing. It's alwlays tough on these closeups, but if you could work on getting even more depth of field, it would really make this image jump! Keep up the good work.

Great use of leading lines to capture attention, and the bw really pulls out hte texture. Nice shot.

Like the texture shown. Lighting, to me, is a little off. Doesn't sem to carry my eye down the arm

Very interesting photo, however the shadows that have been cast are distractiing and mess up your shot. Good idea though and it meets the challenge quite well. 5

Not crazy about the composition of this shot. Texture, yes. Interest, no.

This may be the first time I've seen a shot with on-board flash that actually achieves some quality of texture :-) makes it look very hard - though as it's presumably dead that's probably accurate. The top shadow is a shame - constantly pulls the eye away from that in-focus area where I think, for this challenge, you'd want the eye to rest. Actually, in classicla composition terms, you have leading lines working against your area of interst, which is what makes this a little unsatisfying despite the good texture.

I'd like to see this in color, and with better focus and light

great texture but the shadows are pretty harsh
