Ultrafractal 3.02 -- "Enhance Photo/Automatic Contrast Enhancement" effect and sharpening with PaintshopPro7
Gonna be concentrating on images with a more "fractal" vibe for a bit and this is one of the first ones I came up with. It, and my next few posts, is actually a tweak of my previous image, "Twenty Thousand Leagues". Amazing how some gradient changes and a kaleido mapping WAY off the edge of the image can so dramatically change the look of a fractal made with UF....and a BUNCH of dumb luck, too! lol
I thought this one might convey the vibe of the trials and thorny travails that a couple goes thru in the course of their lives spent together that try but can't diminish their love and devotion for each other. Love flowers in the midst of even the hardest places. Reckon maybe it's sort of an early valentine.
Thanks for stopping by! (look, ma - no sphere! lol)

The flower seems to laugh. Excellent fotographic look and a superbe weakened symmetry by changing the angle. Reminds me on a park bench in central park in autumn.

My word! This almost looks like a photograph Rick!! Very impressive! The pale blue-green transparent quality of the bottom half of the image makes it look like the beautiful flower is floating in the water! This is some image, Rick.... and a wonderful sentiment indeed! Great job, my friend! I look forward to the others you have planned. :)

Looks like a cosy birds nest of a couple of lovebirds to me, and although surrounded by thorny twigs, I'm sure they will survive and love each other for the rest of their lives! Fanatastic work Rick! The design is faboulous, it seems to be floating above the background, giving it a very uniwue sense of depth. I love the 'natural' coloring you used!
Funcoflipper
Sorry dude. Still looks like a photo. Need more fractal in it. Just kidding!! Incredible work. Looks like a rose among stems. Coloring and masking is beyond expert, as usual!!
