Fall Kaleidoscope #3

Not as dramatic as the first 2 but I like the small heart shapes I got in this one. I may replace it with something better.

The Photoshop plugin I used is called Pixel Bender and it's free.

the process looks interesting -- what filters did you use? shu

They are kind of cool in the fact that what they were is almost unidentifiable now but has become something new. This last one was a red topped mushroom I saw growing on the side of the road. As I was rotating it, I saw the hearts form and I kept going with the rotation and didn't find anything better than the hearts. So I ended up with the heart shapes.
