Sunday Stills

The Challenge this week is texture, so I kept that in mind as I went for a ride around the pasture with Beamer. We came upon this fence board, nicely weathered, with moss growing upon it.

Beyond it, there is a field partly plowed. ( D o ears count as texture?)

Then when we were at the arena yesterday, there is a lovely stack of wood for their outdoor furnace.

The Foose cat thinks the texture of his fur is outstanding against the dried grasses.

And, lastly, I love the texture of the petals of my Amaryllis.

I like the ears! The amaryllis is just beautiful! Nothing like plowed fields!

You made some great choices. I like Foose against the grass. Beamer has such cute little ears!

Nicely done! I've missed some of your posts for some reason my feed reader is being lazy. Looking at Beamer pictures I would have thought he'd be at least fifteen hands. To bad you can't just fork over the money and buy that arena along with a nice 40 acre patch of ground to go with it ;)

Great choices. I loved the lichen on the fence board, and the barbed wire. Nice job. :)

I have a riding shot that shows just my horse's ears and field, too, and it is one of my favorite shots!

I love the texture of the wood. It's beautiful! And the mossy board is a fave too, I really like studying mosses in detail. Maybe it's the biologist in me! Great job!

I like them all! But Foose and Beamer's ears are my faves!
Nice selections.

I love Beamer!!!

Like the over the head shot and the stack of wood. For some reason I couldn't enlarge the photos. The magic hand appeared, but nothing happened. Oh well, looks great.
