>>> Last Photographer Standing #14 (Craggy or Smooth) - Entry thread

Last Photographer Standing Contest Qualifying Round #14

Welcome to Contest #14, a qualifying round. This round is open to any dgrin member! It will run from Monday, October 1st 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5) to Monday, October 15th 00:01 (12:01am), NYC time (GMT -5).

The topic ready for your interpretation: Craggy or Smooth.

Shay says:

This time we are all about texture or the lack thereof on either extreme. Texture can be readily apparent or it may need the right light to draw it out or hide. So if you are not getting what you want, you may try different lighting or time of day to help you.

Our DGrin mod DavidTO made a good suggestion that I wanted to pass along for this and subsequent rounds. And that is checking out some of the other forums for help, inspiration, or just kicking around ideas with other folks. My first thought on forums that may offer some benefit are:
People
Field & Street
Holy Macro

You might find others that may be of benefit too. Also remember not to include the word Craggy or the word Smooth anywhere in your title. Think of something creative

This thread, is the one into which you post your entry. Remember, 1 entry per person, and the photo must be fresh, taken during this contest period. Entries must have exif embedded or appended.

This is my first time to enter into a contest, and please let me know if and what I have done wrong. This little guy was out in my yard this weekend and nature photography is my number one hobby so..... After I was bitten three times to get a photo shoot out of this guy, it was clear to me the name of the title "Respect". Enjoy...
