Description
Today was windy and cold, and I had time to do laundry and sit around goofing off at the computer. What fun! :)
This is a combination of two renders done in Apophysis 2.09, one in some prior version of Apophysis, two of my own photographs, a painting I did a long time ago in ArtRage, and a bunch of work in CS5.

This is just so cool and wild! I love it! it's going to be my next long-term desktop image
Cool and fresh job. This is unusual. I give 5 for the idea.
A creative use of multiple applications & cool transparency effects with the ferns...
Excellent idea ,dear Tara ! Very beautiful depiction with this harmony of colors!
This is really fun and creative. Thanks for sharing.
cool
A very nice render Tara.
very artistic creation
Absolutely awe inspiring! and extremely attractive. Have zilch patience I so admire anyone who can render anything. I sometimes can't even wait for the microwave to ping.
From battleships to flowers?
gorgeous composition of nature and mood! outstanding work with powerful colors! ;o)
Outstanding work. God bless.
Wow! You are so incredibly multi-talented! This is gorgeous work...I love play time!
How very clever made, Tara. I'm so enthusiastic about the result, and I really admire it. You are great. and so versatile!
OHHH! I can see you have had a splendid time creating this beautiful image. Wonderful spring colors. Very lovely and cheerful. :)
Well blended.
Looks like you were having just way too much fun with this one, Tara! And the result is wonderful - maybe you need more cold, windy (or snowy) days. We have lots of them here..... :-P
Ahhh the venerable max iterations script :)
You're joining Helle, of late, with this gorgeous blend/manipulation. It's splendid. The fractal-y parts are so organic, we have to remind ourselves they're fractals. The clarity of your photographics makes the unreal amazingly real (and touchable). The faded flowers in center are beautiful counterpoint to all the detail. The composition---including that sphere in upper left corner (like a moon)---is beautiful and so satisfying. And your shadows and lights move through the piece like underwater light-effects. The yellow is perfect, too. It's just gorgeous, whoa. So happy to see you do this again: I wish there were more cold and windy days, if this is what they bring out in you! Beautiful work on every level, tara. I love it.
Damn, Mark is always such a hard act to follow...! :o) I love all the things you can do with Photoshop, and this is an excellent example of the result of playfulness driven by an artistic spirit (and a large dollop of talent). Fabulous fractal fantasy. Makes me want to dig out Apophysis again...
