This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: The Textures In Your World.
My first thought was photos of texture on snow but I decided to expand on that and go with a selection of photos taken on various walks around the neighborhood over the past few months.
Windblown snow.
Hosta leaves.
Orange Lichen and green Moss on a limestone boulder.
Ivy leaves and autumn leaves.
Nice hostas. We’d love to have some of those, but the slugs make very short work of them.

We don’t see many slugs. I do wonder if only a few survive the winter.

We have loads, horrible little bastards, they eat everything.

The other possibility is that something is eating them. There’s lots of water around here so there’s no shortage of reptiles and amphibians.

Yes, we try to encourage the resident hedgehogs to munch as many as possible

We don’t have Hedgehogs but I suspect that the Raccoons will eat slugs and snails. And there’s no shortage of Raccoons around here.

I like the colors of the lichen and moss.

It was the colour that caught my eye. I must have walked past that boulder dozens of times before the sun was in position to shine through the trees onto it making the colours pop.

Thanks K’lee. I had all sorts of textures picked out until I decided to keep it simple and just go with shots from the past few months.

That’s the real challenge when you have lots of good shots to choose from.

I know, I posted my contribution to the Lens-Artists Find Something Red challenge this morning. I had so many options I just went with the first photos that came to mind.
