To Start--Some of My Favorites






I love landscape and nature photography. Always have. I especially love photography that uses a texture as an overlay. The application of textures adds dimension and depth to a photograph. It also enriches the colors and gives a richness to the scene that I've never seen captured any other way. Seldom am I ever disappointed once I've found the "right" texture for the "right" photograph. In this first post, I thought I'd show some of my favorite photographs I've taken over the last couple of years with textures applied. I hope you enjoy.

Amish Farms



I took these last week in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The barns were dotted along the countryside among rows and rows of crops and grazing cattle. It was a beautiful sunny day and those barns were just begging to be photographed. These photographs also gave me a chance to try out some textures by a wonderful artist I discovered a few months ago. Her name is Leslie Nicole and her textures are on full display for purchase on www.frenchkisstextures.com. I have a link to it on this site. I've been using her textures almost exclusively for the latest bunch of pictures I took. As you can see, they definitely add a little something "extra" to the tone and color of the photographs.
