    Default Fortune Teller Sun

    A repost of one I made several years ago, to get the theme going. This was something that just happened on the way to making a mini-world. Do you see the fortune teller, holding her hands around the cosmic egg? Not a lot of filters used, Nik Brilliance/Warmth and Tonal Contrast. The base image is a sunset shot looking up the coast of Malibu. I cropped off about half of the image on the left, where the open sea was, then flipped and joined a duplicate layer. The Rorschach clouds just appeared in the flipped image like in a dream...

    Its very easy to see the fortune teller, well done. This is one of those surprise images we get whenever we flip and image. Must have been a surprise to see.
    Great beginning to the weekly theme

    Great beginning, Kerry. I see the fortune teller (or a genie).

    The image is clear as day. My imagination sees a Japanese Samurai in the rising sun. Thanks for a great beginning.

    Spectacular results from the flip no matter what "being" you conjure up in the center. I love the colors in the sky.
