I have posted photos of our travel in Australia. For this post, I include different photos to show “textures” for this week’s challenge.
We took a tour to the Sydney Opera House; my interest was to understand how the architecture was built to accommodate the curve of the roof. The close-up photo of the tile patterns explained how it was built.
While we were in Sydney, we went to Bondi Beach. I was surprised by the color and textures of the sand. It was as fine as the wheat flour.
We stopped by the park in Sydney and took photos of two beautiful sculptures. The trees in the backdrop and the bases have complementing textures to bring out the admirable textures of the sculptures.
We then traveled to Blue Mountain. The Three Sisters definitely have intriguing textures through the weathering over the years.
The Crocodile Farm Tour surely let us see close up of the amazing patterns of the Crocodile skins.
Exactly. See that is what I was thinking we would see when we went to this lake today on the University campus where they say you can see the alligators sprawled out on the sides of the little island in the middle. I had not expected a close encounter!
I enjoy viewing your photographic mind at work. My favorite here is the image of the waves. I wonder how long you stand and compose before you shoot. It seems obvious that you have a plan. But assuming you don’t and can still translate your shots into blog posts…your images are that much more impressive!!!
Thank you so much for you comment! Yes, I do compose my photos. I watched the waves for a while and see how high they could be, then wait for the highest or best pattern before I shot. The more I learn from drawing and painting, the better I compose my photos. Thanks again to read my mind!
Iwould so very much love to go to australia.

That guy should try to excite the alligators.
