Texture. . . (in French : Texture)

There was a time, not so long ago, when advertising signs were painted on walls. Today advertising finds other ways to worm its way into our collective consciousness. In France older signs like these can still be seen, slowly fading away over the years, under the effects of weather and sun and time. . . leaving behind traces of colors and time-worn textures. I have commented (like a Parrot) to Loulou who is the splendid hostess of Indiaphragme how much I love the texture in many of her photos from India and Egypt. I submit the below photos in the context of texture in humble homage to her excellent work. These scenes are along the route I take to go to work most every day, I finally got fed up with just driving by, and stopped to do these images just a few days ago.
