Dante's Maelstrom I
Pink paeony ICM. No, really. It is (where’s your imagination?) ;)
Well, what do you do when you have loads of these wobbly camera shots? Come to that, what do you do for Sliders Sunday?
I was going to do you a painterly tractor, but it was rather a good tractor (though I say it myself) and I didn’t want to rush it. Also, I feel a bit guilty sometimes posting a painterly rendition to Sliders Sunday because the group is intended to be about overprocessing.
So I was ambling through the back catalogue and found this ICM taken in June which is part of a big collection of failures and not so failures. They’re all so abstract that I hesitate to publish some of them, even in the better ones.
But what happens if you Sliders them? Quite a lot it seems. There were some very interesting results from this one because of the strong sense of movement and depth (it’s a twist ICM of the centre of the flower).
Herewith four variants. The first is a Color Efex smash-up with solarisation and bicolour filters (etc…). The rest are Topaz Studio versions. I avoided painterly versions though there were some good possibilities there too. I like the monochrome version (which I’ll post for my 100x on Motion, as well as the fiery furnace. What about you?
I’ll post a link to the in-camera version so you can admire my dirty sensor. (I have cleaned it now ;) ).
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday and 100x :)
