Extreme?? Probably not.... I can do better. :-) But these are just a couple from awhile ago that I played with while bored. And hey, I'm bored right now. Perhaps an opportune time to mess around again.
Come on photoshopers; show what you can do with a little time and imagination. The world is only as restrictive as you let it be. Open your minds and let the images flow. Enough talk about storage and boarders, swans, and what lens is better, to sharpen or not to sharpen, let’s go wiled, break all the rules bend reality around your finger. Be open to all forms of photography and design. Let not the sands of time get in your lunch, strive at all times to bend fold, spindle and mutilate. Go there no man or woman has gone before. Lift the fail of complacency and run head first into the brick wall of creativity. I want, nay need to see the fruits of inspiration, that spring from the wells of your minds. Be not afraid my fellow DPChallengers to go all the way. This I ask of you.
HO YA I got too much time on my hands.
geez, Bill. A product of the 70's are we?
I don't know if I'm more impressed by his passion or just confused by his horrible spelling. ;-)

Better you can do fantastic. Only limited by your imagination and inhibitions (that may not be a word) but you get it. Hell you got it, we all got it we just need to let it out. Once out be not afraid to let it run. I think we DPChallengers spend too much time on the trivial, and miss the big picture. As an artist we should be open to every thing, soft focus, off center bleeding out of the frame.
I’m sorry it takes me so long to respond to some of your postings, I am also doing a shoot in the studio at the same time. Not mush of an excuse I know but it’s all I got
Now that we are starting to let go. Let’s see how far we are willing to take it. Good stuff so far. Diana has got it now lets see who ells has it. Come on DPChallengers give it up.
Look at this kpriest did a cool thing with a good image to start with. It feels good to free your self from the bonds of the every day.
I have been ranting for a good long time now. Just to start up a spark in what has been just another day of (what should I do, how can I do it, is it OK to do) YES YES do it and do not care what others think. What you think is what matters. Photography is an art. As with all forms of art you will like some and think some is fu%”^ ugly. Hay that is what it is all about. If you make some one think with you art. Then you have achieved the title of artist.
I want to thank all of you for going along with me. I will be checking this string later and hope to see more. But for now I must get back to work.
Some old ones of mine. Not the greatest picture quality because they were taken with 1 megapixel Sony U10, but I had fun with them. This thread just reminds me that I should take some time off from challenges and stock submissions to concentrate on the fun side of things again.
To be honest, I could probably NEVER explain how I made any of my distortions. I just keep mucking with them and mucking with them until I think they're done, or until dinner's ready - whichever comes first. :)
