    Kites of light dance and float in a vortex against an impossible sky. Hey, it could happen!

    Last Christmas I took some OOF shots of some lights, thinking that I would do something with them later. So, the something turned out to be PB Fractal Explorer to make the kites, then render | clouds for the bg layer with an added Topaz Lens Effects spiral warp. Some noodling with colors and such...

    I love the way some images have a life of their own and the processing just follows on until you come to your final result. I'm sure you never visualised this image first (if you did, can I have what you're having please! ), but the result is way out there.

    Some people ask me why I enjoy the OOTB forum as sometimes what we do is quite extreme. I have found that by pushing photographic imaging barriers I have learnt so much about what is possible in a photograph which also helps me process images which require a 'photo journalistic' approach as well. And it is great fun ......

    BTW, I just love this background blue swirl thing you have happening here.

    Wow... Kerry, you are on a roll with these abstracts! I am seeing a recurring theme in your images... too many Sci-fi movies off late? Killer bg and color. Excellent visualization and processing!
