A big thank you goes out to Martin for these beautiful photos! Make sure to visit his photoblog, where he showcases some brilliant pictures (other than textures).

Lately, I have been a little obsessed with HDR photography. Especially the work of Trey Ratcliff is breathtaking and he also has a very good tutorial on his blog “Stuck in Customs”, where he covers the ins and outs of the HDR technique. Inspired by all this, I thought that I could try and apply this special technique to my textures. And this is what came out of it - my first HDR beach sand texture. I hope you like it. Please let me know, what you think of this little experiment, so I can decide, whether it is worth to continue in that direction.

Earlier this week, I was texture hunting and I was lucky to find a few containers, which contained decaying industrial machines. I spent approx. 15 minutes shooting as much pictures from every possible angle, because normally it is very hard to find good rust textures in my area. You can see the results of that session below - a colorful collection of 9 rust textures. Let me know, what you think of those.

This is a free texture pack with images from markers for hiking trails, which we came across in the Austrian alps. All pictures were taken by my lovely girlfriend Antje, who saw the first marker and immediately wanted to make a whole series of pictures. And I am glad she did, because that material is perfectly suited for this blog. So here they are, 6 great photos of stone, rocks and bark with the Austrian flag painted on. Many thanks to Antje for contributing these pictures! As always, a .zip file is available at the end of the post.
