Fun with filters... I used Kaleidoscope on an image to which I'd already applied ZigZag & Polar.
I liked how the ring of red/pink/black almost suggested a raccoon's or fox's face, as if a mask,
as well as all the fine, sharp lines making up the rest of the image.

Thank you Angela! (As one of the people who inspired me to try kaleidoscoping!) I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees the "fox face" in this ;) #3463087Holly Shao November 23, 2006

Another great abstract, Chris. The fine lines are so clear, it's amazing. Congrats on the finals, and very nicely done! #3639698Chris Budny November 28, 2006
Thanks, Mick! I particularly liked the fine lines also; they're so crisp and pointy! (That comes from the ZigZag filter, earlier in the transformation, I believe.) #3642149Don Johnson December 29, 2006
Chris, somehow I missed this wonderful shot. Very well done and, as usual, very creative. #3756242Chris Budny December 30, 2006
Thanks, Don... can you really call it a "shot" after all the manipulation, though? ;) Too much spare time on my hands, I guess... #3759202Judy V. Kennamer April 15, 2007
