A fractal-based photoshop painting I've been working on. This turned out so different from the original fractal I began with that you wouldn't recognize that it came from it. But I guess that's the fun part of playing with fractals for me - to see where I can take an idea. Hope you're having a great day.

I used Tierazon for the background fractals, Chaoscope for the lacy wing work, and photoshop for everything else. Thanks.

Those beautiful diaphanous wings do look like a butterfly but also very angelic looking and coupled with the colors and design, it's indeed quite heavenly...gorgeous work, Nathan.:Pat.

It reminds me of an angel, bending backwards & gazing up into the light of Heaven. Isn't there a classical painting like that ? Gorgeous work Nathan & the framing is the perfect touch.

Nathan .. as you may have figured out, I don't like to repeat myself .. YOU make that very difficult

So .. I leave you with the Arthur Fonzarelli sign of approval

Just awesome! I love the wing structures you have created, and they are so nicely set on the background fractal. I like how the center background is lighter than the outer and lower background, as if the wings carry their own glowing light with them. It also gives the image a feeling of depth, like the wings are coming towards you bring light out of the darkness.

"Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many."- "I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened..." "So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."-Gandalf

It looks like a butterfly to me. That's what so beautiful about your images though, everyone can see what they want. Then the image can take on different meanings for everyone. Love this one!
