This image is of a Palm Tree bark that I took at Merritt Island last year. I ran it through Polar Coordinates and then cropped all but the ¼ image shown. The rest is the enhancements noted below.
Modifications in CS4 included the following; Polar Coordinates,Selective Color, Hue/Saturation, Shadow/Highlights, Brightness/Contrast,Vibrance, Cutout and Posterize.
Hey Mark,
I like the flow of this and the colors are nice and bold....which I like! I also feel the subtle little details and tones add to the overall image.
Mark, This certainly fits the theme! Neat abstract look to this one! I'm usually not fond of the rays of color from the polar coordinate filter but I like how it only shows in one corner-clever!
