brain coral? is interesting and difficult subject. I have been working on taking pics of it myself. this is a nice view.

good texture, but not much in the way of colour or depth. needs something else to break it up.

Not quite as good as the other coral skeleton submission, but there is more detail in this one and less symmetry.

Nice shadowing. Good close up detail.

This certainly meets the âtextureâ part of the challenge, but, it could use a single point of interest to make good use of that interesting texture as background.

Good illustration of this surface. Rhythmical subjects like this I think either need to be incredibly regular, which this isn't, despite the intricacy and repeating of those patterns, or have something to distrub that pattern to work as a composition; and that element is missing here. I do like the progression of light across the surface though. Just a sense throughout the image that the very finest level of detail is missing - camera, processing or shooting I couldn't say, but it might well be a functions of being a hand-held shot, it has that feel to it.

Great idea for the challenge, looks more like the surface of the moon. A little sharpening brings out so much more detail in the 'craters' Well done!!

This is a very good take on the texture category. The image is quite sharp with interesting patterns. It might have more excitement if you could introduce a contrasting shape or color to keep the viewer in the picture.

Great texture.

Solid image. To improve I'd suggest getting closer in on one pollup to increase my connection with the interesting texture

Maybe a little flat. Lighting could be improved
