Ok, this started out as a blurry photo of daisies (I just shook the camera up and down at the time of exposure). Processed it to my liking, then did a horizontal flip on a duplicate of the image and pasted that image into a new layer on the original image and under "normal" blend mode blended the two images 50%

I'd like to take a moment to thank roz for her inspirational experiments with blending images - I am certain that without my exposure to her remarkable creativity in recent months, it would not have even occurred to me to do what I did to this photo.

As for rorschach, I see birds and butterflies. :) What do you see?

Beautiful abstract. This is a technique I used to play around with, but haven't done anything with lately. After seeing this, I feel I should try again.

This is so cool! I love the feeling of the patterns here! It really does look like a Rorschach.

The middle one looks like a funny bird, great use of pattern with nice color.

THAT is AWESOME! I thought it looked interesting from the thumb, but when you open it up and see how strong and striking the criss-cross, diamond-shapes pop out, it really grabs you!

I'm looking forward to trying some of yours and Roz's techniques too!

Too cool!!!! There's a bulldog at the upper center, and something with incredibly long eyelashes at the bottom! I love fooling with blended images and layers.

That's really cool. Like a mod version of the inkblot test. I dig it totally. I always love seeing other people's imagination come to life. ;~D
