    The eye was so compelling in John's image that I wanted to make it the focus. I started with
    Difference Clouds, then a Wave filter, then Ocean Ripple, then Fractalius Slow Motion. I then used Nik>Color Contrast to get the color I wanted and then Topaz Clean Crisp Style and finallly
    Difuse glow. I thought the eye ended up looking like a planet or moon emerging from a cosmic soup.:o

    Thanks for looking.

    Cheryl, lots of interesting textures and details to see in this one. I like the cosmic soup idea and the catch-light looks really cool with the frac treatment. Nice interpretation.
