This is a great photo. I feel as if I should not walk there in bare feet as the earth has dried so hard and thin, it may be sharp. The focus is great as well as the cropping. One thing...what about a lower angle? - just a thought. 9 Ruthann
this is a good idea for the challenge, however, the shot doesn't seem to be quite in focus and therefore the texture doesn't pop out as much as it could. -- gr8photos (4)

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 great idea for a texture, and well executed. you might try including some sort of center of interest, though, because the texture itself isn't enough to carry the whole shot.
I probably like this because it's something I don't normally see in my part of the country, but I would have preferred this with a bit more color..I can't even tell if you've toned it to B&W or not.
