Original fountain image, and then the mirrored/duplicated (and color-toned) image, before Polar Coordinates.

Oops, I should amend that--After mirroring the original image and colorizing it to light purples, I did the two-pass Polar Coordinates trick, often used to make "photo balls" out of a subject... A pass with Polar Coordinates, set to "Polar to Rectangular", then flip the image 180 degrees, then a second pass with Polar Coordinates, set to "Rectangular to Polar". On square images, the effect is a centered spherical end result. On rectangular images, you get a stretched, oval result. And thanks, Dominick! You're speedy today!

Thanks, Tammy... though I don't know how much artistic credit I can take, since the form resulted from using a standard Elements Filter!

Thanks, folks! Danielle, it is always a surprising tranformation, when you do those 2 applications of Polar, back to back... I'm no good at guessing what the outcome will possibly be.
