Chic 's Pentagon of Ballerinas in First Arabesque in Genuine Fractals 6 - Explored

L to R. Monica, Karina, Kaley, Willa, and Caroline

 

After all these years, I have come across a method of enlarging a digitally sampled photo that still looks good over quite a range of enlarging. I can zoom in on this shot to fill a 20 inch monitor with only a slight (really slight) edge blockiness creeping in. I used Genuine Fractals 6, a fractal program that links with Photoshop Elements 7 for the Mac... (Should work just as well on a PC.) I am surprised and delighted.

 

The use of fractals for image processing is something new under the sun. It seems to violate every rule I knew and hated. I wonder how this ties in with information theory via Shannon. If you have a good and easy book you would recommend, let me know.
