More of Nature's Textures

Since one of my 1T "not backed up" hard drives crashed last year, I have been shooting textural nature shots everywhere I go to build up my library.  After spending a week in San Diego for Christmas I ended up with 500 pictures on my iPhone 4s.  Some really great texture, so I will start sharing them here.

I won't be back in my studio until the 11th of January so I am really looking forward to getting back to work. Till then I will be using some of these to manipulate into images for printing on something different.  This year I am going to see how many different alternative surfaces I can create for printing.  Some of these images will end up on those surfaces.
