 Runoff in my bathtub looked like a satellite image or an aerial shot and I hope you were fooled thinking it has something to do with aviation or flying.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Aw dang I was wrong, I was guessing the underside of a mushroom :-) Never would have guessed runoff from a shower or bath!

Meets the challenge very well in being an abstract and a macro; the texture is great and the pattern intriguing but I think the bleachiness of the larger areas on the left are what cost you points. I can see the aerial aspect you refer to though and appreciate the effort you put in here. I think that on the technical side, a lower ISO would have helped to kill the bleachiness, and a slightly deeper aperture, to give it more detail.

Hope this helps

Susan

I loved this shot, should have scored much higher IMO. There were great leading lines and I found the colors very pleasing. This also felt very abstract and macro to me. (I would have guess it was a shot of a loofah.)

makes this look like a crater .. but then again, I am hungry now and I can see this being some ice cream and since I am craving ice cream, it makes it look like an oreo cookie malt or shake..
I really like the closeness and the black and white gives off this photo nicely
