Professional grade composites are all about the seamless layering of several images to create just one that is stunning. It’s a puzzle pieced together beautifully. Before you start putting together your own composites, it’s always smart to create a bank of sample textures that you can use in Photoshop.

Great textures are all around us on walls, street murals, carpets and just about anywhere you look!
