One must have faith... It certainly grew the spines, at any rate!

And I could put on one with an even denser spination...

Does smooth count as texture :?:

Think I will have to take another look at the indoor plants to see if I can find something with a bit more texture, will also have to have a bit more practice with the close up filters I bought for my simple but light weight camera as it is to difficult to use my DSLR at present :smile:

Just one last one of an old Echinopsis, which flowers faithfully every year.

I'm choosing Lithos's E. piscidermis (photo 1). I liked how the individual scales appear smooth (are they?) but, together, produce a really rough overall texture.
