Started with a smoke image lit with a multiple (strobe) flash. Change image to square.
Then applied polar coordinates...copied layer and flipped and blended. Some adjustments in LR. Used 45% quality to reach size limit. :eek:
Almost named it "Eye of Sauron" from Lord of the Rings. :t3
Will post original strobe smoke...
All C&C welcome.:S3:
Here is the original strobe effect smoke image.
This is a seriously cool mini-world! I really, really love this organically intricate and delicate image. Super job! :c3: The colors are out of this world. It's like gazing into a crystal ball, I think... Definitely reminds me of that eye.
Fantastic base image and I love, love, love the smoke designs that you are capturing. The world is full of interest and delicate lines!! Nice job:S3:
Amazing creation Steve! Love the base image also! Is the base image strobed strobes? 5 firings?
Oooo, cool liquid effect. :S3: The image seems full of energy... it's like looking at the source of creation. Beautifully done.

Excellent work, Steve! I like all the intricate patterns in the sphere. The center pattern is especially cool. Well done!
Thanks Christopher, that's my favorite part, too. :S3:
Wonderful creation Steve! The blue smoke in the mini-world reminds me of neon lights. I love the base image too, well done!
Steve this is another one of your awesome creations from smoke imagery. Very cool:5
Very nice image and application, Steve.
Guess those Midwest winter blizzards are starting to inspire you! :w3
The smoke image is fantastic, Steve. Your pp is over the top. Great job all around.
Thanks Mark, Susan, Andrew and Judy! Appreciate your comments very much. :S3:
Mark, I'll take all the benefits a snow storm has to give. :w3
Hope you all are staying safe and warm.
Steve, the smoke image is incredible so I'm not surprised the mini-world turned out so well. I love the hearts in the center:S3:
It's neat you noticed them! Thanks, Cheryl. :S3:
