Contrast/Texture

For contrast/texture I was somewhat limited because of the specific textures and contrasts required to photograph; however, I did try to create a natural theme. The most interesting textures and contrasts are often found in every day life -- specifically in nature. Therefore, many of my photos have neutral colors, because they were photographed outdoors (unforunately on a dreary March day, as well.) Although the colors may be more sublte, the amount of texture and contrast in nature, or just in everyday life, is incredible. From tall trees to fuzzy moss to brittle tree bark, nature provides photographers with an outstanding array of contrasts and textures just waiting to be photographed, even on a gray-skied day in late winter in Ohio.
