Experimenting with texture

I have a whole stack of images that I took of eroded rock while in NZ as an experiment in creating more abstract images where the image was about texture rather than content if that makes sense (although,oddly, I can see animals in two of these :shock: ). The entire gallery can be found HERE

Anyway I've now processed these and submit the following for critique. Is there enough in the image to hold your attention or are they the visual equivalent of Musak?

Hello Peter,
#3 is the onlt one that grabs me.
There are some awsome formations in the limestone of NZ. We were amazed at how many fossil beds were littered through these outcrops as well.
Regards Colin

I would agree that #3 is the only one that stands on it's own, the leading lines around the image create some interest though you do tend to wander around and not find a focal point.

The others could work as detail shots as part of a series with something stronger.
