Very pretty! The "after" actually looks like a picture of a hand-blown glass ball that I have. Really cool stuff, thanks for sharing how you did it.

thanks everyone. I am glad you are having fun with this. It is interesting to see the before and after shots. Windrider can you share your before shot - the after is stunning.

Thanks also melnic - a great effect.

I am always fascinated with the end results. If others would like to share there befores and afters I sure lots of people would love to see them. Perhaps I should have put this page in another section???

thanks everyone for sharing - bring them on more examples. cheers

I like this filter, a few years ago I did a portrait of the entertainment.
I do not remember the order, but I used a ring
as the basis and pulled him from the background.

all great samples. thanks everyone for sharing. Glad you are all enjoying it. As you can see it really depends on the original photo as to what you end up with. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Bring on more samples everyone! Have fun!

Moby I am not sure, did you change the original photo to a 4 x 4 square first?
