289/365 - Jim - I Droste Myself

( f/11 50mm 1/125 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

I only have a couple days left on my demo of Photo Brush 5, so I figured I would do another droste. I set the tripod up and took a shot of myself with my fingers in a circle over most of my face, then selected that area to do the droste. I will be camping the next four days, so you won't see any photos until Sunday. Hopefully I will get some nice photos!

This is a clock that I have in my game room. I used Photo-Brush 5 again to do the droste effect. This would probably make a nice photo for a game room wall. My trial version of the program is almost up, so I'll either have to get it or find another droste program because I think it is pretty cool and an easy effect to apply every once in a while.

This is called a fractal droste. I don't know how exactly it works, but it makes a really cool image. I've seen these before and nobody explained what it was, so I never knew how to create one. While surfing the web today for an unrelated reason, I stumbled upon this program that gives you the ability to easily create these. I'm sure I'll use this effect again. It's very Escher like.
