I think I need to get outside and do some photography. Reprocessing images with Corel PaintShop Pro into Kaleidoscope-like images is starting to get weird! I tried reprocessing some images of Seashells. They are a bit disturbing. Take a look...

Comments, feel free.

#1 original image Scorpion Spider Conch Seashell. A bit creepy in life and the shell itself. Mirrored giving bilateral symmetry. Selected 2.

#2 & #3 A different scruffier specimen of Scorpion Spider Conch. I should mention the algorithm PSP uses I don't understand. It seems pretty random as to what you get. I tried "setting up" some processing session and I would get totally unexpected results. The main thing I can control is how many Lobes or Petals I get. Selected 5.

#4 This Cone Shell did not give such a creepy image. Selected 6 Petals. Maybe these preceding "monsters" are what you see if you get "stung" with cone shell neurotoxin? Probably not this one but many species of Cone Shell are dangerous to humans.
