Buckets of Texture

This could be sharper. Maybe you couldn't because of what is there but I think moving the camera up just a little would help. The dark shadow adds nothing to the shot and there seems to be great texture in the fence that could be included toward the top. That would also give it more of a thirds composition which would be helpful in this case.

The bright reflection is a tiny bit distracting but overall this is well done. I'm not much of a fan of borders but this one works. Maybe just a little closer to the edge on it would be better though.

good choice making it b/w. Maybe some footprints would show off the scale a little better but that might be too hard to do.

Great shot. There is a time for everything and this book has seen so much of it already and there is still so much to be seen. Perfect technicals and great texture.

I love elephants. You've captured this one and the texture of his skin quite well. I think maybe a little too harsh on the sharpening though.

Great composition, dof, color, lighting, contrast and exposure. Interesting texture. Even the title is cool.

This is great. Only point I can see for improving it is maybe put that little shell over into the bottom left. I like the crop on the left and bottom. Love the color and texture.

Good exposure and great texture but for me it's a little boring. Possibly adding a nail or a hammer or something to the image would make it better.

Greater dof would work better here because the bottom left needs to be in focus imo. Love the composition and contrast of the leaf. It would be a much different (and boring) photo without it. Having great texture is the point of the challenge but there are a few shots that are nothing but the texture with no place to focus on. Good job.
