My course on Fine Art Nature Photography is finished.  These are some of the learnings about what adding textures / overlays to photographs can do:

• it can warm a picture
• it softens the “digitalness” of a shot
• it can add a physical feel dimension to a shot
• it enables the introduction of randomness into the palette and the canvass
• background interest
• use it to create an more sophisticated antique look
• use to fix gaps in original shot such as blown out areas
