    Default Evolving Symmetry

    Oooo. Now that was fun! Thanks Ken for a very cool workflow. I eventually just had to stop

    Somewhere in there a blending mode through off the symmetry and gave it a little asymmetric zing

    A landscape from Sedona, AZ... starts the process and a red fill layer sets the tone.

    Thanks for looking.

    Cheers,

    LOL!
    It is hard to know when to stop! You just keep thinking, "what will this shot look end up looking like and what if I applied this and, and, and....?"

    Paul, your description of a Spirograph creation is perfect! I like the slight twist.

    That intricate symetry looks great, I can see how it would be hard to stop, it just goes on into infinity! Good one Michael.

    They say that Sedona is a magic place! I think you captured that... I like the asymmetry, it's different and interesting. For some reason I'm thinking it would be cool to have something in the very center.
