Wow-Double Take
Posted by Susan (Fort Lauderdale, FL, United States) on 4 June 2009 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.
Well, now that the new computer is all set up, with all the new fancy software...I just couldn't resist this!!! I got a new photoshop plug-in called Fractalius......the top shot is the fractalius treatment (one of many variations that are in the program), and the bottom is the shot regular.....Pretty wild, huh????
You can get the plug-in here:

A wild and crazy effect, for sure! Reminded me of the pattern of spines on the "devil's pincushion" catus... which must be aligned in a naturally occurring fractal. Glad you're having fun with your new toy... too bed you won't have as much free time, soon. A mixed blessing, these day-jobs of ours!

@Tony Duque: Yea, looks like I might have to go back to work next week, after the dr on tuesday...oh well, gotta pay the bills!!

Jason Kravitz from Brussels, Belgium
It is a cool plug-in for sure! I am just bummed that it does not run on Mac and I have to dust off my PC to use it :)
If you could, tag your photos with Fractalius so that it is possible to see from the main community page

@Jason Kravitz: I tagged this, and tagged today's post too.....Until you led me to that page, I never realized what "tags" could be used for.....So thanks for the "lesson".....I will definitely start using tags now!!
@Catherine Biagini: Merci beaucoup!!!
@jamesy: yes, the colors on the gerber daisies are just perfect for the camera!!
Jet from Western WA, United States
i love gerbera daisies - i'm not so sure about disco gerberas though ;-)

@Jet: I know what you mean about the disco gerbers......i have another flower fractalius shot in another day or so, and I think you'll like it much more than this one!!
