On the way to my kid’s school, there is an abandoned building with a really nice graffiti piece across the front. Today I decided to take some high-res photos of the graf for you to download to use as texture or stock photo.

I started by taking all the images I had taken, and used Photoshop to photo-merge them into a single panorama; the graf art is very wide.

[TIP] To Photo Merge many files into one, with all the files open inside Photoshop, click File -> Automate -> Photomerge and choose the type of layout, then click “Add open files” … The box will populate with the filenames of all open documents -> Click OK

I have the finished piece available in 300 dpi JPG image at 11,629 x 1,707 pixels, and the rest available in 3 separate sections in 2,500 pix wide, 300 dpi PNG files with transparent backgrounds.

I was surprised recently when I couldn’t find any hi-res leather textures for a project that I was working on. As a result, I got my hands on some actual leather hides and started photographing them. I wanted to share these with others who may also need leather textures for one reason or another. I have 12 leather textures available in high-res JPG format available in a ZIP file, after the jump.

Please enjoy!

It was a gorgeous morning near the base of Mt. Pisgah in Oregon (near where I live), and I just had to photograph it! Something about this image just makes me want to lean my back against one of those trees and take a nice warm afternoon nap!

Anyways, I wanted to share the stock photo with you (free of course). The zip file contains the high-res JPG of the image – 3072 x 2048 pixels.
