In case you were unaware.. there's a new'ish fractal program out there for free:

Jwildfire

"JWildfire is a free and user-friendly image-processing software, mostly known for its sophisticated flame-fractal-generator.

It is Java-based, open-source and runs on any major computer-plattform."

Another Caedes member has some sample fractals using Jwildfire in his gallery to check out if interested (aside from the site's forums, et al):

Just an f.y.i. here.

That said..


Nicely done. The colour combo/contrast works well.

And I hope you don't mind what is to follow, as I downloaded your image here to illustrate a minor tweak/suggestion.

It's almost embarrassingly simple for me to put this up for your consideration, and I don't wish to come off as nitpicking.. however, and forging ahead..

Here is the result.

For some reason, the idea of a simple border to add a touch of framing wouldn't leave me pea brain. And it could very well be a matter of personal taste as to whether it 'finishes' your piece here or adds a lil' something something.

Any -ways and with all that said.. was just typing out loud and shared some thoughts.

And but, of course.. thanks for sharing your creativity with us.

The rose looks as if it's opening right before our eyes. Beautiful.

Excellent colours in this image and a lovely fractal rose you've created.
