I am crazy about textures on the walls of the houses I see on the street – usually from older and often very degraded houses.
But, these times of covid-19 have been the opportunity to be able to walk safely through several small urban forests in my neighborhood in the city where I live. And, I find textures on the tree trunks, on their barks that are full of rich textures.
Below I show some photos I took in a session yesterday.
Hope you like it!
Please note: the tree is a Libidibia ferrea, formerly Caesalpinia ferrea, and commonly known as ‘pau ferro’, Brazilian ironwood, ‘morado’, or leopard tree, is a tree found in Brazil and Bolivia.

I'm an amateur photographer based in the city of São Carlos, São Paulo state, SE Brazil.
I used to make photographs since I was about 15-17 years old. My first camera was a Olympus Trip, an analogue camera. Many years after that I switched to several digital cameras. Presently I own a Nikon D500 with a small set of lenses and a Fujifilm X100T 23mm.
A few years after my retirement as an university professor, after teaching Environmental Chemistry at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) for 45 years, I decided to invest money and time dedicating myself more seriously to photography. I´ve taken on-line courses as well as I´ve participated to various photography festival across Brazil.
By far, my biggest interest is street photography. And in it, I'm interested in portraits, everyday street scenes and architecture.

These are such interesting colors and patterns you’ve captured, Antonio. Must be beautiful trees. I love shooting tree bark, too. Endless combinations.

Gorgeous! One of the types I love in California for its bark is the Manzanita.
