SOME DETAIL FAVOURITES...

In this Detail category I have grouped simple texture shots with close-ups showing detail from some larger image. Textures are interesting in their own right, or they may be used as a background for some other subject. And there's nothing like a detailed image to give fascinating insights into a bigger structure or composition.
