…I just made half of the that up
I don’t know if Texture Tuesday is a thing but I do find that a lot of macro shots have a lot of texture in them. Since I’m a day late with my macro shots I thought I’d include a textural theme for Tuesday.
…those of who know me know that I love anything with texture
At the cottage this weekend I was intrigued with this rotted out old tree stump that I have passed hundreds of times on the way to the beach. If this tree could talk it would have some interesting stories to share.

Anyone who knows me is aware that I love textures. I love to photograph textures and paint with textures.
….the beach has a cornucopia of <a href="https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/textures<a href="http://Textures“>textures/”>textures from grainy to smooth, slippery to brittle
….. summer left by the back door
It seems like yesterday when we were experiencing warm sunny days. I was still wearing my sandals to work and by noon sweaters and jackets were abandoned because of warm temperatures.
Today, cold winds and grey skies firmly established that summer is no more and that winter is not far behind. On our daily walk we now step over smashed walnuts and chestnuts and push through multi-coloured fallen leaves. The dog’s tail is picking up burrs and she’s finding the most disgusting things to roll in.
It’s the colours of autumn that I am enchanted with. The red of the sumac leaves against purple wild flowers and fading green to yellow grasses excites my senses and makes me want to get out my paints and play with colour washes.
Today, on our walk, I purposely looked for colours from foliage not often photographed when one thinks of autumn. The soft textures of tall grasses and milkweed pods to the spiky thorns of burrs and seed pods is like a magnet for my imagination and camera lens.
Enjoy!
My husband and Frances. They were always ahead of me because I stopped so often to take pictures.
