Lunar Storm!

Lunar Storm!

Uploaded: October 23, 2005

Description

I am really not sure about this one! It is very different! I wanted to put an entry in the 'energy' competition and this is one of the ideas I came up with. In the comments I will tell you how I did it. To me it looked like a storm brewing on a distant planet or moon, so I called it 'Lunar Storm'.

OK well now you will know I am completely beyond hope of ever being sane again! This is a photo of a beautiful white flower which had black spots around the centre. I inverted the colours ( you can see the black petals and green spots at the bottom), played with saturation and then applied Flexify until I had something that I thought resembled something in an abstract sort of way. I thought the black looked like jagged cliffs, the blue like the sea just about to explode into a storm, and the BG looked like a storm filled galactic sky! (What an imagination!). #331290

I thought it looked like the 5 BP September judges getting together to "Brain Storm". Hey. that's a great idea for "wasted" energy.
Really, Janet, this is a very cool image you have created! #1986641
