Description

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)

Rykk, you couldn't have captured the theme better. This would be beautiful as a graphic in a book of poetry, a marriage manual, or anything to do with love. You take my breath away with this beautiful image!

Rykk, I just found this, and it's beautiful! It has a very lonely feel to it, I think--as if you were out in the woods on a cool day, after it had been raining, and you found this flower among all the thorns and thistles. It's just wonderful!
