I’ve been playing, want to see?

The top picture is a photo of a bowl of brussell sprouts. The middle picture is a photo of snow covered branches and the bottom one is a photo of a red decoration on a Christmas tree. I took them into photoshop, duplicated the layer and ran an abstract twirl action on them and then fiddled about with the settings until I lost another hour or two! Oh my goodness me, I see Christmas cards!

Lime is a picture of a tierd basket of lemons, oranges and limes. Carnival is a night picture from the Bridgewater Carnival. And Chrys is a bowl of red and yellow Chrysanths. Take them into photoshop, duplicate the layer, go to filter, choose distort, choose wave and fiddle about with the settings until your heart is content, or you have lost another hour or two!

I had such fun, I love the results. I used some less than perfect pictures to start with, you know, the ones you never get around to deleting? And then I realised that actually the better the pictures the better the results of playing. Be warned, twirling and whirling is addictive! I have so many lovely colours and patterns I might just have to put them into collage on another post…
What is your current obsession, in the crafting world of course!
