Comments Appreciated  I wanna dedicate this image to my dear friend  *GolubajaShe's got the EnErGy of a real SuperNova    -- Leonardo How Supernova came to life... This is a fractal I did last Summer. It has 11 layers (2 are masks) and the formula I used is only the basic Mandelbrot. For each layer I tried different OCAs while the gradient is always the same with some transparencies. At the beginning of this work, I tried in vain to find 2 interesting layers to start with, but I was getting nowhere. After adding the third layer, I found out that the spiral on the left, reminded me of a backlit tunnel ventilation fan...so I started to explore the "fan" by unzooming a little bit...I soon realized that I had to move the spiral from the very center of the squared image I was working on. So I decided that the left side was much better. Then I started adding some light beams and worked on their gradient to make them similar to electric discharges (white at the center and a blurred orange on the borders). When I added the layer which created "the wall of the tunnel", I realized that the best way to underline the spiral movement was to move the spiral on the very left of the image. Then, I cropped the image itself in order to change the aspect ratio to about 5:2. In this way the image had a more panoramic format which gave me a better view of the extending arms of the spiral. In the end I wanted to add some noise because everything was too neat. So I chose a b/w layer (OCA = Orbit Traps, Trap Shape = Point) and I unzoomed a lot so that the b/w lines came closer and closer and then I used it as a masking layer. By doing this the host layer was perfectly visible (due to the high frequency of the b/w lines) and it was also present a "TV scan line effect" which added the noise I was looking for. |
