This week’s photo challenge is TEXTURE: share a texture found in an unexpected place. It could be made of natural materials, as in these images, or with man-made objects.
This photograph was taken on a glorious January morning walk through my beloved Arroyo Seco park, where a modest stream meanders through cattails, eucalyptus and sycamore.
Enjoy other examples of texture here.

I need a walk there one day. Haven’t been in the arroyo seco in ages. Great photo, and nice texture for the challenge.

I absolutely love it there, and I’m lucky that it is only 10 minutes from my house. I’ve used it in quite a few of my posts, because it’s just so darn pretty. And I also notice that the happier I am in a space, the more I photograph it.
Thanks Sue!

As a kid, we believe that when that lands on your hand, you can make a wish and blow it again to the wind. Good thing I am never a wishy kind of person. Awesome capture, great details.

I’ve never heard of that tradition, but I like it! Passing along the little wishing plant kiss – nice.
