Textures

EU: Textures can be overlayed with your photographs in order to create a unique effect
EQ: What kind of textures can you capture to enhance your photography?









Assignment: Textures are available over the internet but it would great to start your own file that you can pull from when necessary. Your file can showcase an array of different types of textures from grunge, to sand, to fabric, etc. 

Steps: 
  1. Get outside and wander to discover and shoot all sorts of textures 
  2. Use the macro lens if desired to get up close on fabrics and more
  3. Turn in a contact sheet with 60 images (mostly different-not ten of the same thing)
  4. Edit at least 20 of your favorites which show a strong variety
  5. Create a folder named "textures" to store them in 
  6. Create a new contact sheet with your edited 20 and post the contact sheet to the blog
  7. Practice overlaying two of your textures with some old or new photographs (use blend modes and layer masks to hide and show what you want) and post to the blog with a short paragraph reflection on your final results
