Free Moss Textures and Moss Pictures: 22 Photos of Moss on Stone, Bark and Forest Floor
22 free moss textures and moss pictures from the BigFoto library, all real photos: close-ups of thick green moss that fill the frame, moss growing in the joints of old stone walls, on roof tiles and on tree bark, mossy logs, stumps and paths in the forest, and moss on the rocks beside waterfalls at Krka in Croatia, in Iceland and near Kuranda in Australia. The close-ups work as a texture for 3D, games and print; the forest scenes as a calm green background.

Moss textures
Moss from close up and edge to edge: a green cushion of moss, moss on a wall, on a rock and in a crack of stone, and moss on tree bark.
Moss on stone walls and roofs
Old stone walls and roof tiles where moss has grown in every joint, the look of centuries-old buildings.
Moss in the forest
Fallen trees and branches covered in moss, a mossy stump, the foot of a tree wrapped in green, a carpet of moss on the ground and an old path overgrown with it.
Moss by water
Moss on the rocks of a stream and beside waterfalls: the travertine falls of Krka in Croatia, a waterfall and the lava fields of Þingvellir in Iceland, and a waterfall in the rainforest near Kuranda in Australia.

Questions about these moss textures
Can I use these moss textures for free?
Yes, for personal and commercial projects. All we ask is a link back to BigFoto.com; the box at the top of the page has a credit link you can copy.
Which photos work as a seamless moss texture?
The first group: the close-ups have no horizon and moss from edge to edge, so they can be cropped or tiled. The moss on bark and stone works for an aged, overgrown look.
Why does moss grow on stone and bark?
Moss has no roots; it holds on with fine threads and takes water straight from the air and rain. Shaded, damp stone walls, roofs and tree trunks suit it better than open ground.
