Taken at the Sycamore Township Street Food Expo held in Bechtold Park in the Sycamore Township suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio.

The light was very low across the face of this textured surface.
one of my contacts talked about this technique - and I'd been meaning to try it. It's very simple - you fill a glass pan with a half inch of water, then pour in some cooking oil. Just a bit. Lay something colorful on the ground (a Hawaiian shirt in this case) and put the pan on top of it. You need to put something between the pan and the cloth to lift the pan up a bit. I used a few drinking cups.
Then shoot. I think the original instructions said someone used a telephoto, but I wound up using my extension tubes and getting very close.

I took an image I created with a kaleidoscope app on my Kindle Fire. This was a design I created from lines and colors I applied myself, not a kaleidoscope created from a photo. I added an image I took with Photo Booth on my iPad. The latter image was an image of one of my abstracts on my computer screen and taken with the light-tunnel effect.
In Photoshop, I repeated a part of the light-tunnel image 6 times to overlay over the kaleidoscope image. At that point, it still looked like a kaleidoscope. I then cut parts of the design and rearranged them, then warped the image to create the basic composition you see above, creating an informal balance instead of the symmetrical design..
I used a Topaz Glow effect and later an impasto effect from Topaz Impression.
Back in Photoshop, I adjusted levels and colors.
