I don’t usually add texture layers to my photos. A bit of color saturation and some burning is more my style. But, I decided to use some fabulous textures I purchased a while back for this week’s I ♥ Faces submission. This is my son, Elliot, in a photo we took near the canyon on “Redneck Ridge”. Hope you like it!

These textures are from Patti Brown’s Kaleidoscope: A Collection of Color and Light. You can see a before and after of the above photo here.
