Well, one of the few 'Landscape' shots that to me emulate 'Texture'. Well done: 10

I am jealous of anyone who has such a landscape available to photograph! Well captured.

i can imagine the roughness of this stone under my bare feet...almost like being at the end of the world. Intriguing place, where is it?

An apt title. A little larger than necessary. Subtle texture changes which are a plus. It wouldn't have hurt the image to crop the top to the waterline and would have improved the overall impact. Excellant color control and the shadows are not over done. The temptation to increase the shapes by over sharpening was avoided. A worthy entry into the challenge.

So many textures and shades of blue/grey! They work very well together. I like how the colors and textures all flow from one to another and everywhere I look, I see something else that reminds me of texture.
