Compliment

This week in SSC:
"Complimentary Colors"

I've never purposely worked with complimentary colors before and knew nothing about them so this was a good lesson this week.

I chose orange and blue for my colors because I like the way they look together. I hurt my wrist this week so I wasn't able to do as much as I would have liked. I started with an image I took of some embroidery thread and used a "kaleidoscope" effect in PIXLR to give it some interest. You can see the original and another "fractal" effect in the PiPs. (Sorry if my commenting is a little late this week.)


....and for Sight and Sound:

Collective Soul from their album "Dosage" (1999)

Hi Karen

I really like this picture!

Superb complementary colours you have chosen

I do love fractal geometry! I still have Mandelbrot's book "Fractal Geometry of Nature" from when I was at university. It is right on the bookshelf behind me!!!!

Best Wishes, and a good weekend
Peter
