For this week’s Lens Artists’ Challenge Anne asks for a look at textures. So, here I go.

This is a giant water lily. Here are some details showing the various textures:




Another plant texture, very dry by comparison; the bark of a date palm:
Lichen on a metal fence. The metall, once smooth, is flakey and rough and nature is slowly taking over.

Machine stichery with threads of different colours and different thickness:
More stichery, incorporating smooth shells and wrinkly seeds, linen as a backdrop and silky ribons (the full picture is the featured photo on top of this post):


Close-up of a crocodile in dire need of a pedicure:

And last, not least, a tree bark contrasted with the not quite smooth plastic skin of the mouse:

Fabulous textures, Elke. And you can tell the mouse is stunned at what surrounds him. 🐀🐭

You did really good with these pictures, great examples of so many different textures. To choose a favorite would just be wrong 🙂

You’ve packed a lot in here Elke. Lots of different ‘feels’.

Awesome response Elke! I liked that you photographed natural and man-made items. I hope you used a long lens to capture that crock’s toe!

Thanks Anne. A medium lense for the croc. But there was a fence.
