This was taken when I made a specific trip to the grocery store to capture some vegetables for the Texture III challenge. I had lettuce in mind when I stumbled on this gorgeous array of cabbage. The automatic water sprayer must've just shut off because all everything was covered with water droplets. I brought up the saturation and sharpness just a bit after cropping out some busy areas on the right.

Beg your pardon, but some people just don't know "texture" when they see it.
Smartly photographed, technically excellent. I should have voted in that Challenge. If I had, your score would have gone up a fraction of a percentile or two.
I gave you an 8 becuase you did a great job but at the end of the day it's still just a bunch of Red Cabbage and Cabbage...no matter how red, will never set the world on fire.
really nice shot. colors are strong, focus very good and composition interesting. the oof part up-per right is slightly distracting, but the overalll effect more than makes up for it. the lighting is a bit flat for emphasizing the textures
Killer Title. Really sets off the heads of cabbage....Lots of boring entries in this challenge, yours was the first to provoke any emotion or real interest. 10
Wow! Incredible texture. It jumps right out at you. Awesome colors, and the water drops make it. Good luck! I personally think it stands out even among 617 ENTRIES!!! 10
