    Default Lotus World

    I conjured this up from the colorful op-art lotus pad I posted not long ago. First I used PB stereographic filter and then I did polar coordinates, selected half of it and flipped it then flipped it vertical also. then it was a bit jagged so I used Topaz Clean on it but couldn't get rid of it entirely. I like the bright colors and patterns and "faces".

    The colors and patterns are brilliant! And I really like the symmetry. The eyes make me think of 2 Crested Owls!

    Nice fun colors and pattern Judy, it feels a little tight on the sides but that may have been you wish for the image. Neat!

    Thanks Nancy! I've never heard of a crested owl so I looked it up online and saw photos and they are very cool looking!

    Thanks Denise! Yes it is tight but that's how it came out with polar coordinates. It was a square, symmetrical image to start with after my original crop before I knew where I was going with it. I like that one too and it's kind of a mini-world so here it is.

    Very lovely colors and patterns, Judy! I love the owl faces in the first one, but the flower shape of the other is cool too.

    Judy, love that stereographic filter! Adding the PC and flips is a nice touch. I like the second one also, I would move the center away from the center on that one. That's one wild lotus!

    Congratulations on winning the weekly contest with this one!
