I like this shot a lot :) Great inclusion of several patterns, and they fit together so nicely. I like the dominant blues in this shot. Good focus and perspective.

I like the abstract feel to this shot and the color. My eyes feel like they are lost and wandering though without a more defined focal point.

Great concept for this shot, and meets challenge. The shot is overall pretty busy. I wonder if this same idea could be done with a tighter crop, and focusing on a smaller section of the pattern to bring more emphasis to it.

Good pattern and sharp focus throughout the image. I would like this shot brightened up a little so that it has a very lively, bright, happy feel; whereas now it looks a little grey and dull.

Nice colors and great focus, though I'm having a little trouble identifying a repeating pattern in this image.

Great pattern, and I like the abstract feel it has. I think this shot would look a little better desaturated, as the color doesn't add anything.

I definitely like this shot in black and white. Good focus and concept.

Meets the challenge well. Maybe a little sharpening could bring out some interesting details in the rock. I'd also be interested to see a closer shot with some rock patterns and maybe a branch or moss pattern too.

Great idea and subject, though I think that this shot could be improved by getting up close and personal with the cactus. The background is a little distracting and it adds nothing to the shot. A more unique perspective could bring a lot of interest to this shot too. I'd love to see a macro shot focused just on a few rows of spines to *really* emphasize the patterns here.

Good focus and color in this shot. I think this would look a little better without the shadow along the bottom.
