Good shot! The composition is great on this photo. Several lines - sky meets water, water meets beach, etc. Although the 'texture' is not as right in your face as some would expect, it definately does have lots of textures going on. Great work. 9 ruthann
In all honestly, I think the photo would've been better if you cropped the top and showed more of hte beach. that has a nice grainy texture, and it wouldn't put puppy so close to the bottom. karmat
I like your idea, and you captured it well. You're going to get nailed to the wall because it isn't a 'real' texture (so they say), but what do they know?

For those that are just learning, like me.
Composition: Scoring in this area is based on basic composition of a picture and includes the rule of thirds, balance, cropping, and curved and diagonal lines. Subject matter that does not lend itself to the picture or otherwise unwanted is also considered here.
Originality: Scoring in this area is based on pictures or concepts that I have seen, as well as how much effort you have invested in the picture. Usually a little something that sets it aside from a snapshot. Does it make me want to come back for another look? You know things like that.
Technical Aspects: Focus, exposure, lighting, and other special effects (done by the camera), and post processing are all considered in this category.
Meets Challenge: This is based on my interpretation of if you, have/have not, met the challenge. This is fairly simple but quite important for this site.
There are many sites that can give you assistance in achieving better skills in photography, but I think the best way to learn is to take pictures and show them to other people. Believe me when it is a good one you will know it.
This is a good capture of the dog in motion - but I wish he was further in the frame and not running off to the right side as it draws my eye to much to that direction. This was a stretch for me in if it meet the challenge. I originally scored it a 4 - I would rather have seen a shot of the wave meeting the shore where more texture was visible, but I checked with my local weather guru who assured me that fog does have texture so I am bumping up the score to a 6.
I am more interested in the texture of dog. I generaly like to see subjects that are moving, moving into the frame. ie: if the dog were placed at the left of the frame and running up the shore.
This is a cool photo but the title ruins it for me... Luckily, I don't vote based on the photo title :) Your title is pointing me to the fog in the photo. the dog here has perfectly good and strong color texture. Compositionally, this photo is quite nice. If you had tilted your camera down just a tad to bring the dog up a little more, I think the composition would have been perfect :) Great shot = 8 - jmsetzler
I have always loved the texture of fog and I am very happy to see someone willing to take the risk of submitting a photo of it. You are braver than I am. I hope you do very well.
I like the shot more than I like the challenge concept, texture of fog is interesting but that is hard to capture on this type of a shot vs a forest. The san has an interesting texture to it. The water washing up on the shore would of been a great shot.
Its a good effort considering the unphotographable nature of fog. Having a subject in the picture is good, but I would prefer something to do with the fog, like a lighthouse.
Beautiful photo. This is a picture where I think having your subject moving off frame works. Because it shows us s/he's coming out of the water. As for meeting the challenge.... well... you'll still get a good score from me but I won't be able to give you a 10.
Even though you cleverly called it the texture of fog, all the emphasis and action is on the dog and the foam near the beach. Originality: average. Technical: good. Emotional impact: average. Meeting subject challenge: so-so. Overall, a pleasant img though.
