    Default Gerbera Daisy Zoomed Fract

    A purple Gerbera Daisy that I Zoom Blurred a couple of times and then used Fractalius. Reduced the brightness and saturation a fair amount.

    Look forward to comments.

    Andrew, Lovely pink colors and the zoom has so much movement in it as I scroll down. Love the center, as presented I might take a slice off the top if it were mine-excellent!

    Andrew, that's really cool. It's like the Mona Lisa - no matter how I look at it, the center is staring back at me!!

    Andrew,

    Wow, this one pulsates. I agree with Denise on the slight crop at the top. Nicely done.

    How do you critique an artist vision of an OOTB image?
    I really like your choice of subject and the effect you achieved.

    I'm not suggesting my re-post is better, just an alternative.

    Andrew, you are posting some really nice images. I love this one for its strong graphic look yet organic feel. Very nice to gaze at, with those lovely colors and hypnotic lines.

    Very graphic and strong...almost "visual illusion" like...It actually convulses when scrolled...
    I don't have any particular critique of the image (I like the original better than the repost) other than what do you do with it?

    I think it might make an "effective" photo printed very large.
