x bunny, good to see you stop by. Think of my blog as forced relaxation after a hard day in the saddle--lol.

Thanks for the kind words. If you haven't done so, make sure you click on the image to see the large version. Most of these images really come to like when you enlarge them.

Deb, I almost used this as a docking station for my story. I originally saw a bunch of fighter craft coming in to a central refueling station. But, I just liked the snowflake idea better. :-)

Trée said...

Meg, I'm taking all Wows that come my way. I still have room for a few more. :-)

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the two Wows.

Evening Sunshine. :-)

Hey OB, I was thinking of changing my name to Joe, if that would help. :-D

I'd forgotten about kaleidoscope-type images...

Sometimes they are just what the doctor called for--thanks for stopping by Darius.

Holy Wow! Whatever does a Hynerian landscape look like covered in that snow??? Electric!!!!

Trée said...

Come experience it with me baby. Bring a blanket--everything else is optional. :-)

Opening my arms wide and my smile is bright. Come this way, just a little closer my dear, just a little closer. :-)

T, I have a Joe opening at the #5 slot. Interested?

...I'm going to have to start a list to keep track....

(still would like to see one of these fractals in a frame some day!)

Trée said...

Mmmm, #5. For the OB, I'll take it, with bells on--everything else is extra. :-D

Pick your fave and I'll see what I can do.

Anonymous said...

Great, you're in!

...hmmmm, bells.....

I think my fave is this one: crisp but diaphanous, cool and warm, enveloping yet freeing...appears obvious until looking more closely. Beautiful!

Trée said...

OB, let me play with printing this image since I saved it at an odd square size. If it turns out looking good, I'd be happy to mail you a print if you would like it.

Serious?!

Wow, that would be wonderful!

Trée said...

That's my girl :-)

May your angel wings always lift you a little higher.

Trée said...

OB, you caught me at a weak moment--LOL. Yes, let me print a copy and just make sure it prints well. Sometimes these images don't translate to paper all that well. I'll be in touch with the results. :-)

Trée said...

Jeanne, the image looks fine printed. It is a square render (I tried re-rendering in a more traditional 4x6 but this introduced unwanted elements into the picture), so if you were thinking of framing that could present a little bit of a challenge. Drop me an email so we can discuss size. :-)

You've read my mind ;)

That is amazingly beautiful and radially symmetric as well as colorful.

AHP, thanks for stopping by. Glad you like the Hynerian Snowflake.

Did the Father and son post come from this too. Another amazing tribute to looking at things from a different angle (zooming in or panning out). This is really beautiful!

Trée said...

Ann, the Father and Son images came from this one. I cropped and zoomed the Snowflake image to get the two images you see in the Father and Son post. I'm so glad you liked these and once again, your kind words are most welcomed. :-)

I really enjoyed "father and son" and Pursuit! The colors are so beautiful. it really made my day. thank you and to Liz for bringing this to my notice.
One suggestion: follow this trend of having some description of the images, it gives more weight to the whole post.
great work.

Trée said...

Jack, thanks for stopping by and thanks for the feedback. Liz really is a wonderful person and I feel lucky to have gotten to know her. Thanks for the kind words. :-)

Heh, yes, the images are very intriguing - I'm going to work you into a blog post later on this week I think.

I've been collecting more notes for the "On writing" series, and as I mentioned over on Liz' place using random graphics to kickstart your mind can help. I think I won't dig into the arcana of running Kfractals for windows-users, and link to you instead.

"Your writing assignment for today, should you accept it, is to go over to Tree's blog, look at one of the images there, and write a short story about it. This blog post will self-destruct in five seconds..."

Err, I might not be able to do that last bit for real but it's too good a line/pop culture reference to pass up.

Trée said...

Øystein, thanks for stopping by and thanks for the kind words on the images. I have several hundred up on this blog, so hopefully, someone will find something of interest by which to write.

I find the assignment very interesting in that my whole sci-fi story with Kyra and Zeke, which is now in the 100s of postings, is a story that was started with an image and continues to be a story driven by images. In other words, the image comes first and the prose only afterwards. Without the fractals, I would have no story.

Take care and hope to see you around again. :-)

Tree.
I love the fractals, but I love you more.

Trée said...

Awww, Liz, how do I respond to that other than simply to say thanks my friend. The feeling is mutual. :-)
