Beautiful close up work showing the smooth and rough textures. I'd like to see the grey patch near the top right gone though, and the lttle patch in the lower left focused sharper. Still this is a good image and will score high in my voting.

Very original and I like it. Even the movement of the finger illustrates the process. I'd like to see some of the yellow removed from the overall pic though.

adjusting to get rid of the overall blue tinge would improve this and turning the watch to face the camera would help too. I like the vintage look to the image though. I collect vintage linens so it has natural appeal to me.

focus isn't sharp enough

Not crisply focused and could use better lighting. I still like it though, being a tree-hugger type...<grin> But it needs a focal point.

I love everything about this wonderful photograph! Nicely composed, well exposed, fits the theme of the challenge.The smooth and rough textures are clearly defined. The more I look at it though, I become more critical. In a good way of course. The oval center is interesting yet it got cut off. Perhaps turning the camera to the portrait format rather than landscape would work well to compose it differently.
Very nice photograph anyway! One of my top 10.

Textural yes but nothing to hold my attention. Good lighting.
