Computer geek extarodinaire, I love to tinker with gadgets and tech items to get them to do what I want. I'm either logically artistic or artisically logical. I'm also rude, crude, semi-barbaric, socially unacceptable, and totally psychotic. On the bright side - I am potentially harmless. I'm currently trying to write some short stories about the fae as well as a novel on those same fae as well as two other novels. The programs I have for photo and image editing are: Photoimpact from Ulead, Adobe Photoshop 7 and Corel Paint Shop Pro 2X. Recently I've added DAZ Studios as well as Terragen, Blender and Google Sketch to my list of programs crowding my hard-drive. All this and much more on an old Pentium III 450 with 396 Megs of memory and operating Windows XP. It does get interesting at time.As of December 26, 2008, I have added Vue 7 Pioneer to my list of reason of why I'm going insane.
As of January 2010 I upgraded to a new HP 2 dual core processor with 6 gigs onboard mem with 4 gig powerboost and 2.07 terabytes of Hard drivesMy email is faemike55@gmail.com

It has been way too many years since I have seen the beach. Beautiful colors. This is enough to make me want to find time to plan a trip.
Where did you take this picture?
Madbat
Oh! Oh! OH! This reminds me of the end of 2001 when Dave is tripping balls...I mean being spacewarped to the builders planet. There's a segment where he's flying over a landscape that looks all trippy like this

full zoom is a must---great textures, as if this were carved into a wall, with lots of little pock-marks and incisions. And I love what you did with the sky---like it's a plaster wall! You've textured and transformed this beach scene into a carving or bas relief, and you've given it a strange 'inverted' feeling, with wonderful mysterious greens and purples. And lots of space above. Another wonderful transformation. Those poor beach shots---they're sittin' around saying, "what did he DO to us!!!" Terrific work, Mike. (And I agree with Madbat about that particular scene from 2001...)

Great scene and work!
mininessie
very nice effect Mike!

A scene of an alien beach, maybe a Paklet stronghold, minutes before invasion.
Excellent filter work, Mike!

I can see methane seas crashing against the rocky shores somewhere on Triton in this image. A spectacular shot in its own right, and even more engaging with your manipulations, Mike! I love it!
