Ocean's Eye
Ever since getting the iOS app called Frax, things have been getting interesting for me on my end. I looked at a few fractals and thought of how I'd like to manipulate them. I usually try to keep some aspects of the fractal in the image, but this one kind of deviated far from the original fractal created. Part of the background on the right has some aspect of the original, but not much. Here I give you the image I call Ocean's Eye. I created this on a 4K canvas again, due to the strange dimensions I got this created with. I then started with the initial fractal, and distorted it with Dents and Gaussian Blur. I decided at that point to do a Polar Inversion on the far left, so that I can get some closer texture on the far right. At that point I thought it might be easier to do things without the black background on the fractal, so using Magic Select, I selected the black of the initial fractal, adjusted the tolerance of the selection, and then redid the Gaussian Blur and Dents.
