Today I did the startup tutorial of Fractal Explorer, took the image to Photoshop, gave it the Mehdi kaleidoscope treatment and came up with 20 beautiful images, all in same color balances, but so different. Here are 3 of them:
Endless hours of delight as I learn new programs and techniques to create these fractal kaleidoscopes. The Fractal Links on side bar take you to some of my program and tutorial sources.
More variations from one image, only this time I've discovered Mind Blowing Fractals, created images, taken them to Photoshop, played with colors & put them thru the Mehdi kaleidoscope Photoshop plug-in filter. Come up with hundreds of astounding images, each one a WOW gasp of delight. Next step is to animate them.
These ones are just a few from a set of 30, all from the one original MBFractal.
They take me back to the Alhambra, where the Moorish Divine Geometry and the sounds of water flowing and bubbling in fountains illuminated me at my deepest levels in an experience that still brings thrills in the remembrance.
This last image, part of the same set, is a cut-out mounted on gradient backgrounds.
A few examples of kaleidoscopes I created today in Photoshop using the Mehdi kaleidoscope plug-in.
The following are variations on a theme, showing how different fx can be achieved from the one image using this plug-in on various settings. Endless fun!
