Texture

There are many textures to explore in the natural world, and in my opinion some of the most interesting are those intrinsic in wood.  For each of these pictures there is at least a bit of emphasis on the grain of the wood that makes up the large doors which were the foci of my pictures.  In addition, there were many interesting patterns in the metal used to encase the wood, as it appeared hammered and distressed.  I tried to capture these but still keep an interesting picture by adjusting the focus and attempting to maintain image aspects like the rule of thirds.
