[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is part of a stack of rope I saw at the docks last summer when I went to take some shots of the USS Hornet. There were piles upon piles of rope in various states of wear and tear. The assorted sizes and textures drew me in for a closer look:)

PP: resized, sharpened, added border.

Hi Karen

Like the composition and colours.
Nice frame too.

hi Karen

Nice abstract shot in showing the graphic and pattern aspect of photography. Good sharpness and texture to bring out good resolution.

TFS, bill

Lovely close up shot, Karen! Love the bluish tone on the sun-bleached rope. It looks beautiful. Good job.
Cheers!
Freddie :)

Hola Karen ,

Me gusta esta imagen por la simplicidad, pero efectiva, buenos contrastes y texturas, buen trabajo.

Saludos,

Hi Karen,
A superb image. The oblique POV is beautifully envisaged...offering an artistic touch to a very mundane object. Love it.
Best wishes,
Celina

Hi karen, fine and elegant graphic effect, great sharpness. A good job really.
Ciao, Cinzia

Hi Karen, The thumbnail "roped me in". I really love detailed shots like this. One never appreciates many things until seen in closeup. Who would have thought a rope could have so much detail and design.

Great detail, sharpness, and repetition of pattern.

Nicely done, Lisa

Good detail, good sharpness, good simple, singleminded capture.
I like!

What an artistic eye you have Karen,
I love your detail shots and this is one of my favorites,
Sometimes the beauty in something so simple like this, really can have an impact.
Love the flow of the lines in this composition.
Great one!

Hi Karen:
A very interesting macro study of a a coil of rope, I like the texture here and colour focus and light ... I have nevre seen a photo here of a coil of rope on Tl , this almost looks like a coiled snake because of the weave of the rope..... Love the frame and matching colours and the presentation..... Thanks Karen...Roman:0)

nicely observed and cropped, tastefully presented shot. T>Y> Janos

Hi Karen

This is very nice. Excellent abstract image with wonderful textures. I love the tight framing. You have made something beautiful out of something normal
