I was truely at a loss for this challenge, until someone in the forums said "I should be able to look at the photo and FEEL it" My favorite feeling is a warm bed.

The file size of this photo is only 27K! The rules allow for up to 150K. You have lost a lot of detail and sharpness due to the JPEG compression artifacts. In my opinion, I don't think texture is a primary element of this photograph. I hope my comments have provided some useful information, and keep trying! *3* -balynch
Your image lots of its intrigue with the combination of black & white and such a dark image. I'm a sucker for bright, vivid pictures... I can't help but imagine this one with very bright sheets and light streaking across part of the image, though I'm probably missing the point of the shot. A boy can dream...
the eye creeps me out. The overall photo doesn't have sufficient contrast for me to feel a desire to return to the warm bed "advertised" in the title or shown in the photograph.
Soo dark and gloomy, especially in B&W, seems awkward with the title. When I think of warm, I think of colors like red and yellow. I started by grading this shot as a 5, the I don't understand vote for me. I don't see much sense of texture. If you would be so kind as to send me a note after the challenge week, I would like to understand this photo better. (see my profile for e-mail info) 3 Swash
I really like the composition, the subject, and the concept. I very much like the creativity in the shot. However, I had to search around to find the subject because of the lack of contrast.
i would almost consider this one patterns more than texture, but i can see your pow and i can go with it. however, the shot is very much gray on gray, some more contrast would've helped this a lot, i think. -- gr8photos (2)
