Description


Time to shift gears for a little change of pace. Title refers to the fact that this began life as a photo of the suspension system of an M-60A1 Patton Tank. I've been watching as some others here have been doing some remarkable things with filters and layers. I employed several filters here finishing up with stylized glowing edges and distorted the entire thing using polar coordinates (Photoshop filters). ZOOM shows colors better. Thanks for all your comments and favorites, Bill:)

Great Scott, General George Patton must be spinning in his grave! You've reduced the suspension system of the formidable tank named after him into a bowl of filtered gelatin. Actually, it was George C Scott who played the role of Patton in that memorable movie. Do you see the tie-in? Stellar work and interesting what you've done with the filters, especially the irrepressible polar coordinates. I think I've opened a Pandora's Box.

Wonderful adventure in Photoshop. Kind of reminds me of a Harley T-shirt.

Not knowing what a suspension system of an M-60A1 Patton Tank looks like, I'm just going to enjoy a really cool design. Great work.

I thought you were abstracting an ancient Greek plate in a museum. Quit messing with my tank lover's mind.

Got to admit I had no idea what it was until I read your narrative! Not entirely sure if thats the point.... But, as you know, Bill, Lol...., these just don't swing my boat or, in this case clank my tracks! Cool but.... Rob.
