Layers of the Cosmos

This image was slightly unexpected, possibly due to some of the steps taken to get to the end, and also the different colors that came out. I had a harder time with this fractal manipulation since it was not a transparent PNG like the others I’ve done here. The initial fractal was created using an iOS app called Frax, then I manipulated it in Paint.NET to give you Layers of the Cosmos.

Like all of the others, I started with the fractal, but on a 4K canvas since it was a weird set of dimensions. I then made a background using Gaussian Blur and Radial Blur. I then added a splash of blue and purple using the same effects as well as Dents to get some texture in. I then blended them in with Color Burn and Glow, while also leaving some of the layers as Normal. After that, I wasn't satisfied, so I did some overlaying of the initial fractal on top and adding other effects such as Polar Inversion to get some good different textures in there.

I then selected some part of the fractal on the right, and did some Radial Blur and Dents to get a bit of a different look to it on the right, and blended it together with Difference, Darken, and Glow. Something else I did that is slightly different than I've done in the past is I selected a part of it using Lasso Select, and did some effects such as Gaussian Blur, and Dents, to give it even more texture. Hope you enjoyed and I hope to see you here again soon.
