Kinda nervous about submitting a water splash shot here, heh. I suppose a side challenge is better than a real one for it.

On 8/13 I put up an image that raised a question: "How'd you do that?"
I had some time today so here are some really rudimentary instructions:
In step one I used the polygonal lasso tool to make a pattern and then put a stroke around it.
In step two, retaining the ‘crawling ants’ selection, I used an action I created to make the repetitions.
The action consists of a 20° rotation and then a 20% reduction in size of the selected area. I repeated the action about 15-18 times to create the spiral.
In step three I erased the portions of the stroke lines I didn̢۪t want and cropped. It is (for me anyhow) impossible to re-create the original piece, but you get the idea.
The earliest spiral abstract in this thread was done by selecting the entire image and doing the rotation/reduction routine.
By varying the rotation between right & left, and the numbers, all sorts of patterns can be accomplished.
Happy play time!

No Topaz used here. I promise not to add any more images that were not taken this month. Just took a while to get out and shoot some!

A couple from Split, Croatia.
I'm about to head to Ohrid, Macedonia. I'll be there for 5 or 6 days so I can hopefully catch up on some commenting! |
