Description
Ultrafractal 3.02 - Photoshop7
Had a "ball" making this one! (ouch! sorry, I just HAD to say it...lol). The three parts of this image - the two "sidebars" and the middle - were made with UF and then assembled in Photoshop7. I think there is a mapping transform in UF that will do this but I forgot where I saw it - and would probably have had a tough time figuring it out, anyhow. As the Beatles said on "Revolution #9" - "every day you get a little bit older, you get a little bit slower..." lol
Thanks for stopping by! :>)

Very nice combination!I love the colors and the presentation very much!
Wow! A most excellent render. Very original and the presention is exceptional. Bravo.
WHOAAAAA !! OKAY who do i have to kill to get a wallpaper of this?? ( sharpening weapons as i ask )... I've been a cheapskate with my first vote ..but you just bought my eye .... ( ~~ vote ~~ )
The inter-relationship between all the elements is wonderful, Rick! My latest goal is to learn how to do spheres. Wanna teach me? :-) I am a slooow learner. As always, "excellent" does not convey my sentiments of your work!
Nice image. The frame is unusual and the background color jumps out nicely. The sphere is very good. The comments that you get are always interesting. I am going to live on the edge and make a suggestion for this "masterpiece". If it were my image, I would put a little more contrast into the green (mde?) shapes, or maybe they need a touch of texture. :~)) Just a thought, for what it's worth. Don't hate me everyone. ;~)
Outstanding image Rick!! The colors are wonderful and I really like the symmetry of the two side panels. Great contrast on the background to highlight the image. Very well done, frames are classy. An impressive image, indeed, congrats! :)
Beautiful tri-composition! I love the color and texture, and the "orb" is a brilliant focal point. Great job...
Great idea, Ryck, you have an optical illusion in the side panels, good job!v
Da alles was ich sagen wollte schon gesagt ist, nur das. Ein Meisterstk mehr von dir. !!!!!!
A bit older, a bit wiser, an exhibition bit... Great pic, Rick
wonderful use of color; very nifty fractal object in the background
I like the sphere and Silver outside structure of the sphere very much , also the head of the snake on the right side of the sphere For a triptych it is a little to flat in my opinion i think a little more perspective on the outside pieces make .s it more interresting ,more really a triptych but that ,s of course pure my own idea :-))Colors are very beautifull
Fantastic image! Wonderfully creative presentation. It all works perfectly :)
Superb work.
Rick this is the most beautiful of your images. I love it! Outstanding work, my friend!
there is nothing I can ad to all these comments... Only one thing I can do, vote for it wich I gladly do... it is just a fantastic fractal
Sublime Rick!! Total GORGEOUS. I never see awesome work like this one. I keep it with my fractal. VOTE :)
vote Wow I can see now up close why this one is #1 in the top hot 20's Bravo Rykk totally beautiful piece of work.
Very beautiful Rick :) The sphere is just gorgeous, i love the white/silver combined with the greeny-blues. The background "sunset" sets it off perfectly. Another unique image, i love the idea.
Very unique! Cool, wonderful colors & texturing! Love the setup too. Fantastic! (:
can you see the future past, can you see your self in the glass? wonderful i could stare for hours
;) ;) ;) (I haven't any words more)
Fantassssstic.......V
no need to say more, for everyone did allready, excellent design rick ;-))
Great!!
Agree with Keith about the colours. They're a little flat along the bottom. Bringing the green out more would help. Apart from that it's another top image!
gorgeous fractal work Rick. It reminds me of a christmas ornament. Love the reflections in the ball and the background work is great! Very creative dispaly!
nicly done >Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I know I'm a bit late commenting on this one, but I just had to say I think it's fabulous !! I just love that sphere, it looks like it's covered in melted silver...Just BRILLIANT !!!
WOW...totally awestruck!! :):)
