This week your photography challenge is to take and share a photo on the them of ‘textures’. The theme was suggested on our Facebook page by Kirsten Thompson.

Feel free to interpret it in any way that you wish.

You might like to take a Post Production approach to the theme and play with adding some textures to images that you’ve taken in Photoshop or you might like to actually capture some real life textures in some of the images you take over the next few days.

Here are some tutorials that might be useful depending which approach you take:

Once you’ve taken your “Texture” image, upload it to your favourite photo sharing site and either share a link to it below or embed it in the comments using the our new tool to do so. Please note it sometimes takes us a while to approve comments with images as there’s a moderation queue – particularly over the weekend.

If you tag your photo on Flickr, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag it as #DPSTEXTURE to help others find it. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.
