HI Glen,

Just curious as to the actual subject of the third image.  What was it?
Zowiee!  Makes my head spin.

Hi Tom,

That is a fractal image I created in software. I later used it to create this image:

The girl was photographed at night, on top of a parking garage. The original sky area was totally black. I took this image several years ago, with the intention of filling the black skyline with another image. Several years later, with the help of my computer, I finally got around to filling in the black sky. So far, that was the longest I've ever taken to create an image. ;-)

The original fractal image also makes nice computer wallpaper. I sent a copy to a newspaper photographer friend once. He said he left it on his computer as wallpaper and went out to lunch. When he came back, one of the news writers was sitting at my friend's desk. They were repetitively moving their head closer to, and then farther away from, my friend's monitor -- as if in a total trance. :)


take care,
Glen
