Weekly Photo Challenge: Texture. This last week I had an overnight stay in Dumfries & Galloway after a less than impressive performance at Colvend’s Open. An evening amble along the coast helped put things in perspective.
Kippford overlooks Urr Water not far from where it flows into the Solway Firth. The road through the village runs out at The Ark as it becomes single track access for the string of houses that hug the shore. A few hundred yards along this track there is a series of art works created from driftwood and found objects. Down on the beach is this weathered installation which is all about texture – you know exactly how these surfaces feel without the need for touch:

I love rust. And the top pic is especially delicious, rust-wise, Robin. Which reminds me of a Tom Petty line – ‘if you don’t run, you’ll rust.’
Thanks Tish, despite my head being full of lyrics I didn’t know those lines until I searched on Google – now watching/listening, excellent track. The power of WordPress 🙂
Indeed. 🙂
I can really sense the texture of the rust in that first photo. Sorry about your bad golf day.
Thanks Julie – I am getting over it, almost 😥
Love the rusted chain!
Many thanks Connie – I like the fact it matches the highlight text colour on my blog 🙂
That first image is a classic, Robin 🙂
Many thanks Jo, the evening light was just perfect.
