Extreme?? Probably not.... I can do better. :-) But these are just a couple from awhile ago that I played with while bored. And hey, I'm bored right now. Perhaps an opportune time to mess around again.

Be open to all forms of photography and design. Let not the sands of time get in your lunch, strive at all times to bend fold, spindle and mutilate. Go there no man or woman has gone before. Lift the fail of complacency and run head first into the brick wall of creativity. I want, nay need to see the fruits of inspiration, that spring from the wells of your minds. Be not afraid my fellow DPChallengers to go all the way. This I ask of you.

HO YA I got too much time on my hands.

geez, Bill. A product of the 70's are we?

I don't know if I'm more impressed by his passion or just confused by his horrible spelling. ;-)

For Christmas, my son gave me a Homer Simpson picture frame cause he said he thought of me when he saw it. So I made this picture to put in it...

Yes kpriest I am a product of the late 60s early 70s and very prude of it. Remember acid costs money but the flash backs are free.

Better you can do fantastic. Only limited by your imagination and inhibitions (that may not be a word) but you get it. Hell you got it, we all got it we just need to let it out. Once out be not afraid to let it run. I think we DPChallengers spend too much time on the trivial, and miss the big picture. As an artist we should be open to every thing, soft focus, off center bleeding out of the frame.

Look at this kpriest did a cool thing with a good image to start with. It feels good to free your self from the bonds of the every day.

I have been ranting for a good long time now. Just to start up a spark in what has been just another day of (what should I do, how can I do it, is it OK to do) YES YES do it and do not care what others think. What you think is what matters. Photography is an art. As with all forms of art you will like some and think some is fu%&#â��^ ugly. Hay that is what it is all about. If you make some one think with you art. Then you have achieved the title of artist.

I want to thank all of you for going along with me. I will be checking this string later and hope to see more. But for now I must get back to work.

Thanks

Some old ones of mine. Not the greatest picture quality because they were taken with 1 megapixel Sony U10, but I had fun with them. This thread just reminds me that I should take some time off from challenges and stock submissions to concentrate on the fun side of things again.

The requirement was that you had to be able to explain the steps to reproduce! DQ'd! ;-)

LOL - when I first looked at it, I thought it was the Batman logo. :)

To be honest, I could probably NEVER explain how I made any of my distortions. I just keep mucking with them and mucking with them until I think they're done, or until dinner's ready - whichever comes first. :)
