I like the texture on this basketweave footstool & thought that it might make a decent subject.
Only my second entry on this site so feel free to give me some advice & criticism.

Great shot, a sea of basketweave flowing into the distance. The stray string is shouting out for a different title to this picture, it seems to warrant an entry in the 'independance' section, because that stray string seems to want to forge it's own route and refuses to comply with the rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The pattern and colors, especially the off line makes a good photo!

I like that it's in color. Adds some interest. Also, at first, I thought that the 'stray string' was a distraction, making the shot seem less uniform, however, I think I like it. Makes it just a bit different in that area to add something to look at and not make it just solid basket. Focus and DOF are both really good. LIghting seems alright as well. The subject isn't something that's making me jump out of my seat with excitement, however, it's a well done photo, technically good. ~Heather~

The one out of place strand really makes this image for me. 9

Interesting. And the detail recedes. I like it.

i really like it amazing shot, one of the best

This would serve the challenge better (in my opinion) if the DOF were a little longer. The texture idea begs a better focus farther back in the shot.

That made me hungry for licorice.

Composition: Good symmetrical view of the weave. Nice touch with the one strand slightly out of place. A lower perspective I believe would provide a little more sense of depth. 8
Exposure: Due to the shininess of the strands it seems a bit over exposed and the bright spots a little distracting. 6
Impact: Above average. The pattern of the weave is interesting and draws the viewer into the image though with a lower perspective I think more impact could be achieved. 6

Overall: 7
