Textures

1. Texture is the way a surface, substance or piece of cloth feels when you touch it.


2. Shooting texture take photography one step further conveying to the viewer not only how something looks, but also how it feels to the touch.


3. The bonus of photographing bricks is creating patterns and shapes.


4. A good texture you can photograph could be tree bark and this is interesting because it is  glossily smooth or dry, peeling and rough.


5. Touchable qualities of paint would be a shiny new coat of paint on a windowsill, an old peeling fence or a thickly layered oil painting because they all invite the lens forward to reproduce qualities.


6. The stone lends itself, in nature and urban settings, because for example, a pebbly beach may not seem as tempting a prospect as its sandy counterpart, but the different shapes and sizes of the stones just excite the person looking.


7. Some aspects of wood that are inspiring are twisted roots, roughly chopped fire piles, smoothly sanded new grain, and etc.


8. 3 fabrics/textures that we can photograph in school are matting, carpet, and rough paint.


9. Qualities of rope are different. There are rough and fraying or smoothly waxed and because there are many different sizes of rope, it gives the photographer the chance to move in close and get a good texture shot. We can find rope in gym when people climb rope.


10. Metal is a good piece of work to photograph and photographers like to take pictures of it because metal can be smooth, rusty, and dull. Metal also gives up its age and that gives the photographer another exciing texture to work on.
