I finished up my final fractals for class today and want to share them here, as well as the ones from the previous two weeks.
Since there are so many of them, I have them at a smaller size on this page. But you can click on them to get a better look.
This first batch is from Week 4, where we were introduced to the Rose Range Lite coloring formula. As you can see, it produces fine filaments.
In Week 5, we played with another coloring formula, Orbit Traps. All I can say is "Wow!" So many functions! You can spend the rest of your life playing with this formula and never exhaust the possibilities!
And lastly, in Week 6, we played with layering and the various merge modes which blend things together.
Now I have a couple weeks before the next session begins. We will be studying masking, which will bring my fractals to a new level of artistry. Looking forward to that!
Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks for reminding us at Painter Talk to come here to look. :)
Patty I have so enjoyed watching your growth with the fractals. I love what you are doing. Well done.

Hi Patty! Barb told me of your page some time ago (Thank you, Barb!), but between starting the course you've finished and referred to here, and the blogging course, I'm just now getting here to have a look !
Lovely work, I love the depth in your barred spiral in the rose_range_lite practice! did you render your work to disk in HUGE form? It's amazing what kind of textures turn up in what looks like debris in the smaller versions of some kinds of images. "Try it, you'll like it" applies here. *grin*
You also got some nice color blends going on. Learning that is a large part of why I took Janet's course. That and not knowing how to use Ultra Fractal in any sensible workflow!
I hope you post some of your experiments from the masking course, too! I'll watch for them.
If you're curious what Fractint, Atriatix and old softwares like that produced, I have a few fractals up in a couple of posts. One is titled, "Photographs, Fractographs?" which I'll have to remember to change: turns out the word "fractograph" is a term for photographs of fracturing materials in industry. There are a few more in a post called, "Fractal post: Iterative Images".
No Ultra Fractal post yet; hopefully in a couple of days :).

Sorry for the long comment; ask anyone, I'm still working on "succinct". *grin*
Cheers,
