Weekly challenge 4/21 - 4/27 Texture

[SquarePeg]

This week's challenge is texture. Everything has a texture but not all textures are going to translate well into a photo. Textures to use as backgrounds and overlays are currently very popular in the artsy photo arena. People are creating and selling them for use in LR.

Post a photo of something that you think has an interesting texture, or add texture to a photo to give it a more interesting look, or create a texture overlay or background that you can use over and over again. There are a lot of different methods of using texture for this challenge.

Interesting
I told my daughter that her wedding photos this weekend would have a theme, but I wouldn't know what it was until @SquarePeg announced it!

Texture it is!

This is a fun topic and I am sure there will be a lot of participation! It's fun to hold the camera and start looking for textures! I want to get the ball rolling with a couple of quickies.
