I'm surprised bamboo doesn't show up more in challenges because it's photogenic in my opinion. Here, more depth of field would increase the amount of focus in the photo.
What a cool idea! Nothing really seems in focus though - I need to work on that too... lol. keep trying - it gets better with every challenge entry...5
A low score from me for a couple of reasons. As far as I can tell there's not one piece of this that is in focus. Doesn't really fit the theme, either (spiral is not necessarily a synonym for spinning).
Creative approach however this does appear to be lacking some focus. I can't really see what the camera autofocused on if anything to be honest.
There is a lot of noise that does distract from this image as well.
The colors are nice and well saturated. The shape of the bamboo does create visual interest.
The challenge: Certainly a unique take on this challenge. While there is isn't actually motion in this capture, the shape of the bamboo creates a sort of visual movement throughout the frame thus meeting the challenge nicely.
