My First Mandalas...
very nice . I used to do this sort of thing in the darkroom by making numerous prints and then cutting and piecing them together. Did not do many as each took quite a long time to complete.
Nice effect Angela! I like it!
We used to make kaleidoscopes with glass. Very interesting math involved. Most think of th e kaleidoscope dating back to Sir George Brewster in the mid-eighteen hundreds. Actually they go back to the early Egyptians who used them in divination rites.

Stunning Angela a very beautiful creation. We have a kaleidoscope in the office it is brass and was given to us by a Haulage Contractor Bob was interviewing in Texas. It is the first thing the grandchildren go to when they visit.

it's all because of the facebook twirling community that started this idea and the youtube video Jim sent me... so I just had to try and it is quite easy to create!! So if you have Elements, you should give it a whirl!!
Beautiful! They all look very interesting and fun to do. Would you mind posting a link to the video that has instructions?

Angela, you continue to progress with creativity with different treatments. Well Done.....
I think a road trip to your place for a 'twirling' meetup is in the offing! I'll bring the popcorn!!!
Excellent job. I like the colors and design.
LOL.... Jeff, if you're on FB, you can certainly join this twirling community, they do give directions and tutorials!
Glad you enjoyed this creation, I did have fun making it after I finally figured it out.... and the image started out as one of my African Violet shots!
Hope you're enjoying the weekend... we getting rain on Sunday :-(

WOW... that does sound time consuming, Bruce... now you should try one in elements, if you have!! Nothing to cut up!!
Thanks for your visit and comment... glad you liked!!

Glad you liked this, Sylvia... I still have two kaleidoscopes and hope when Zachary gets older, he'll enjoy them like your grandchildren do!!

Glad you liked this, it is fun once you do it wrong a few times! lol...
Sorry, but for some reason I can never share a link.... just go to youtube and search, creating a Mandalas in Photoshop Elements.
