Thanks to everyone for visits , comments , awards and invitations, I appreciate your feedback very much

Feel free to use on your creations, just don't claim as your own or resell it. I hope everyone had a great Easter.

How to save this texture... Go to the top click on "All sizes" once your at the larger image click on the tab that says "original" then right click on it and save it to your computer.

Very basic tip on using-

Open the texture, open your image.

If your using Photoshop, go to your "layers palette" have your texture as the top layer then play with the layer settings, try these (make sure your on your texture, not your photo): Overlay, Soft Light, Hard Light (more dramatic) and Multiply.. keep in mind you can always use a light opacity eraser and erase bits of the texture away from your image.

Have fun...

textured

This was taken the other day it is of a part of a mill wall which has been repaired with red brick

I just purchased textures from florabella textures... I love them! Here is my first photograph using these textures.

Old, weathered, outbuilding in a pleasant rural setting. Some textures added.

This was a very dark picture with lots of noise & no eye detail. It was sharp however & nuthatches are few & far between so I messed about with it & added a texture to mask the noise.

Found in Box Canyon near the end of Dinosaur National Monument's Cub Creek Road in Utah.

Dov'era l'ombra, or sé la quercia spande

morta, né più coi turbini tenzona.

La gente dice: Or vedo:era pur grande!

Pendono qua e là dalla corona

i nidietti della primavera.

Dice la gente: Or vedo:era pur buona!

Ognuno loda, ognuno taglia. A sera

ognuno col suo grave fascio va.

Nell'aria, un pianto… d'una capinera

che cerca il nido che non troverà.

(G.Pascoli)

****

Where was the shadow, or the oak itself was consumed

dead, nor with tensile turbines.

People say: Or I see: it was great!

They weave here and there from the crown

spring nidiets.

People say: Or I see: it was still good!

Everyone praises, each one cuts. In the evening

each with its grave bundle goes.

In the air, weeping ... of a blackcap

looking for the nest she will not find.

This is another option for today's Macro Mondays theme "Speckled", but I am not sure if this can be considered speckled.
