Free Hi-Res Photoshop Brushes - Nature Grunge 1

I have a small state park that’s near me that I go to often.  It’s not the prettiest place that I’ve been to, but there is a nice little area that has hundreds of pine trees neatly growing in rows.  These trees are easily 50′ tall, so it makes for a strange environment.  All you see is the slender trunks and a thick layer of pine needles on the forest floor.  When you look up you see a web of stark bare branches, and then way up at the top you see the green needles.  I’m no expert, but I think that these trees were planted too close, i.e. no room to grow.

Why am I talking about pine trees?  Well for a couple of years I’ve taken pictures of this area, and have never done anything with the pictures.  They would just sit on my hard drive waiting for the correct moment to pull them out and do something with them.

The other day it dawned on me that these pictures might make for some interesting Photoshop brushes.  Better yet they would make interesting "grunge nature" brushes.  These are all good size.  Each is 1500 pixels.  There are 7 brushes total.  Made with Photoshop CS2.
