| I don't think that a small DOF works well in this challenge, including here. |

| There is too much area out of focus. Distracting. |

This is very interesting. I like the DOF, works well here as does the golden colors. Although it may be intentional, I think it is a little too much contrastry/sharp. Perhaps it was done to emphasize the 'texture', but I don't think it needed it. Still great photo!! 8

| I don't understand the context... can't give it a high rating even thought it meets the challenge and I like the color and texture, if i don't get it. 3 sjgleah |

| As far as meeting the challenge, your example of texture is good. The technique is good, while I am not a fan of the "band of focus". I don't like the "wallpaper" effect of shooting the item to take up the entire field, and the photo doesn't really capture my interest. I look for more creativity. |

| nice texture and colour, but is that shallow DOF for the bottom left and upper right sides, or what is it blurred? |

Total Score8
For those that are just learning, like me.
Composition: Scoring in this area is based on basic composition of a picture and includes the rule of thirds, balance, cropping, and curved and diagonal lines. Subject matter that does not lend itself to the picture or otherwise unwanted is also considered here.
Originality: Scoring in this area is based on pictures or concepts that I have seen, as well as how much effort you have invested in the picture. Usually a little something that sets it aside from a snapshot. Does it make me want to come back for another look? You know things like that.
Technical Aspects: Focus, exposure, lighting, and other special effects (done by the camera), and post processing are all considered in this category.
Meets Challenge: This is based on my interpretation of if you, have/have not, met the challenge. This is fairly simple but quite important for this site.
There are many sites that can give you assistance in achieving better skills in photography, but I think the best way to learn is to take pictures and show them to other people. Believe me when it is a good one you will know it.
Good luck!

| The way the focus falls off on both sides is very distracting to me. |

| In Focus - 6, Lighting - 8, Color Levels - 4, DOF - 6 , Interesting Composition - 2, Interesting Subject - 2 >>> Tech Scores = 6, Subject Scores = 2, Final Score = 4, (Looks like too much sharpening and saturation adjustments... I think you were trying to acheive the focus effect so I gave some leeway there)... RLS |

| Not bad, the rough center interests me the most. |

| I bet you get loads of negative comments because of the selective focus in this, right? well, I do, and I'd say my shot is somewhat similar. I love the composition and detail in the crisp area of the picture and think it's great for texture. 8 beegee |

| I see a nice texture, a lot of out of focus areas, have no idea what this is and it does not offer great variety or interest. |

| Very interesting DOF trick. I like it, quite unusual, but for a purpose. |
