Texture Tuesday

I know I've been doing Presentation Tuesday, but it's going to be moved to another day.  Every once in a while I want to do Texture Tuesday with Kim Klassen.  I don't know what I'm doing yet, but I figure I'll learn something.


Here's my finished photo:




I used two of Kim's textures, warmsun and yesteryear in Photoshop Elements.  I think I want to work some more on it and make the textures a little less subtle. I find that I've forgotten most of what I knew about layers in Elements so I need to read my book again. 


Here is the original:



I do have an upcoming Presentation Tuesday.  Not sure when I will post it--maybe next Tuesday if not before.

I did some additional editing on the contrast on this one:






I'm thinking about using it as an etching pattern.  The only downside is the images are small.  I'm not sure how they'll print. 


Here's a colorful one:




Check out my set on Flickr for more fractal designs.
