My new fav!!

especially after looking at Colette's new webpages, but also by freshly enjoying the many designs created by this technique this morning - these remind me of colorful snowflakes. certainly no two are alike!

I have a few that I want to go back to and remove the 90 degree rotation as there's some interest outside the square that I want to see how it looks over the entire image.

Then there are some that need the extra 1 or 2 or few rotations to really bring things out.

I have a smugmug & a flickr account, where I think I will move these as soon as I have time. cpanaioti had a good idea. Instead of trying to get more room here, it's better to move. This is, after all, a photography website. Not art. eheheh.

What? This isn't photography? ;oP

... and photography isn't art? :(

cgino gave me an idea with one of her comments.

Since I have the printable fabric I think some of these would be great for cushion covers.

Who knew DPC could promote home decor.

And yes, Colette, printing these on fabric would be wonderful! Not only could you do cushions, but make those quilt squares that everyone is talking about :-)

These take a lot longer now that so many possibilities come into play.

Hope nobody minds me jumping in, but I was intrigued to have a go doing this technique. Played a bit with a couple of test cases and then on this one I inverted the image and found I rather liked it. Cool process

Ok, for the proverbial DA.(Moi)...I'm trying but not sure I'm doing this right as I have Gimp. Once flattened, do I use the flattened image as the "new one" to copy or do I constantly go back to the original? GIMP doesn't seem to respond the way PS does and I so want to learn this! These are just kewl and beautiful!

Images with very dark backgrounds and just a small amount of lighted detail seem to end up with geometric patterns which are much less cluttered. On this one I did a 45 degree overlay and then added another layer at a 22.5 degree rotation. This is what happened:

Original shot (2004) of my granddaughter with light from candles:

Here's the flip horizontal --> flip vertical --> rotate 45 --> rotate 22.5 result:

... and here's a 3x3 tiling of that:

For anyone interested in printing on fabric, here's a site to check out.

I've got the pre-treated fabric from this site just haven't printed anything yet.


fyi

Kind of looks like the sides are bowing...

did someone say dark backgrounds work?

LOL, only because I have 1,001 things to do and I was sitting making pretty abstracts. What great fun, thanks for starting this thread.

I can't help thinking that these would make great silk scarves, a la Hermes :)

I suck at moon shots, so I couldn't enter the moon challenge, but these are based on moon shots.
