Some beautiful, artistic textures for you to use in your own posts

Introduction

It has been raining a lot lately so I haven't been able to do any proper photography.

I therefore decided to try doing some texture shots. I have done lots of versions but since SteemImg is still being migrated to a new server I have picked a few of my favourites. I have also given some examples of how you might use them at the end.

I'm really pleased with how these turned out. Some of them are very pleasing to look at (for me anyway).

Feel free to use these in your own posts if you want as per Steemit4free.

An example of how to use these - customise with text

For the following shots I simply added white text in Photoshop and changed the blend mode to "Overlay" which allows the texture to come through. You can add any text you want and do the same:
