Description

I'm having trouble classifying this picture under a category for the graphic lesson, but I feel like it is one of the better photos I've ever taken, and it is truly graphic, I am just not sure whether it fits line, pattern or texture; regardless, I like the result and I am submitting it in hopes that you'll feel the same way.

WOW! My toothpicks appreciate all of your kind remarks! Thank you Joanna, Denyse, Connie, Cheryl, Sharon and I think Gina...though I am not sure what "one of four" means. I did see it on Connie's "crabby pattern" remarks too, though, so maybe it's a glitch in the system...anyway, thank you all. #55793

Not to worry, Jennifer! Jim sent this through on Sharon L's photo:

Hello fellow BetterPhoto members!

I just wanted to let you know that you are doing everything right. The one-per-day submission rule has been observed perfectly.

I appreciate Gina's watchfulness but you can all rest assured that she is mistaken in these cases.

By the way, the email notifications sent to Gina are getting kicked back to me as undeliverable. She is likely not aware of this thread. Maybe her email will get fixed soon or she will stumble on this thread. But for now, I doubt she knows that this discussion is going on...

Your photo is great! Nothing to worry about!

Cathy :)
