Heart of Amaranth

Post by keith richardson »

Hi,
Inspired, as I always am, by Gerry and Jared's talk on Thursday, I was driving back from Cambridge late last night and tried a shot of traffic streaking through the windscreen, in a safe and controlled way of course, ( I'm not suicidal ). I then photoshopped the results and added a bit of Lincoln Cathedral from last week and ended up with this image /thingy / wotsit.
So thought I would share it for comments....

Interesting effect, some strange inter-dimensional creature looming above us, ready to consume us all. It belongs firmly in Doctor Who!

It just shows what can be done with imagination.
Best regards

That's a long drive Keith and you must have been tired! Terrible what sleep deprivation can do to the brain and its functioning - thankfully it recovers, but you need to make sure that there are no residual gremlins :twisted: that might blur your sense of unreality! :lol:

Interesting how you 'see' all the components fit together - another good insight into that mind of yours Keith!

4S would have been 5 but its not as sharp as it could be in places :lol:

Not a clue how you did this but it's great, I wouldn't know where to start to produce something like this, haven't got the imagination for it :??

It's very creative, but I honestly don't know what to make of it.

Thanks for the comments.
I thought I would upload this version to tie in with last weeks talk, but I have to admit that it is the initital phase of a work in progress and already the current version has moved on significantly.
Watch this space for the next instalment.... 8)
