I'm always fascinated by a good driftwood shot. Lots of nice things to explore in the lines, swirls, textures and colors.

The big version is very nice. I wish the below center lh portion was in better focus which will improve the comp. Other than that--well done...................Jim

The large version is a real treat as it shows off all the textures and details of the driftwood, Ronald. My only suggestion would be to crop from the bottom to get rid of the OOF area in the LRC. I think this works so much better with everything tack sharp like the rest of the image. Beautifully done.

The shapes and textures are nice. I'd be inclined to maybe try this in B&W.

There are a lot of interesting contours as well as great textures in this. I had the same thought as Tony about converting this to B&W and then boosting the contrast to bring out more of the texture.

Nice Ronald. I like the texture of the driftwood. I think the crop and conversion suggestions are good ones. Good subject for a focus stack.
