Very, very cool fractal, and superb photoshop play. The title fits it perfectly. Well done Nathan!

Beautiful, Nathan! Yep, I can see I have to take a more careful look at Chaoscope. <g>
High marks from me!

Great music can help create a great image.. This is a great one.. You are going to have to tell me the secrets of chaoscope.. I never find anything this pretty.. This is definately a 10..

Thanks for the compliments. This is really more photoshop than chaoscope. The flame is a simple one, copied to a new layer set to lighten mode, rotated 20 degrees, and its color changed in the hue and saturation dialog about -25 each time. I did this eight times. I then flattened that image and increased the saturation a little. I copied that into a new layer underneath, transformed it so it was slightly larger, did a gaussian blur (about 25), which gives the ghostly effect and puts color into the black areas. Then I drew the design wheel using photoshop's pen tool, and used a gold style on it. I created a new layer and put solid colors in the spokes of the wheel, starting with blues and the top to reds and purples in the lower right. I made it semi-transparent so the flame would show through, and added an inner shadow to that layer. Then I filled in the left with black. Now you know all my secrets! :)

Great image and great song Nathan. This looks stunning!

Very well done , That is exactly how I feel these days... The wheel as to keep on turning!
Always number one in my book Nathan!:0))!

The thing I like so much about your images Nathan, is that you never publish any of them incomplete. You do such a great job putting on the finishing touches. This one is no exception. The design and coloring are flawless.

Thank you! Have a great day, my friends.

Whoa, slow down, Nathan! LOL! Regarding your "secrets," you said,"Then I drew the design wheel using photoshop's pen tool, and used a gold style on it....."

Did you draw the design on a different layer?? Thanks for sharing something of your techniques. You're clearly the Photoshop guru here!
