It is less simple than it seems to create a very good one. I often try to do my own textures but each time I don’t feel really satisfied. It is less simple than it seems to create a very good one.

It's fairly subtle, but at the bottom of the photo, in the asphalt, you can see the vertical lines from the pillar.

So, here is an example of something I did with texture. I really like using them to add a bit of color or an expected blending mode situation over just adding a bit of "texture". In this example, you get a bit of apparent overexposure as well as a bit of a "sketch" appearance. This was a soft light blend over the image. I then desaturated it and burned a bit of the texture to simulate a background object for anchoring the image in space: http://www.flickr.com/photos/poisonberry/4075521550/ Felix has a good point.
