One of the photographers I do follow is Matt Kloskowski and yesterday I watched a video of him using texture in images. You can view a brief introduction into adding texture by going to his site and watching the video on this page.
I’ve never used the select subject before to add texture, so I thought I would go the way of how he does his texturing. And boy, is it much easier and quicker.
A month or so ago, as part of a couple of photography challenges, I submitted a yellow hollyhock. And I thought this would be an ideal photograph.

I used two difference textures, and once I was back in Lightroom, I used my Soft-Focus Floral Preset. And in the crop tool changed the angle to -10.86
