Description
A spiral I made in Apo today... actually my first. I worked on this a long time and still am not entirely pleased with it. The right half looks good to me... the left half seems a little rough. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!Thanks for looking!
Hugs,
Anj
{Edit - Forgot to say this this was done in Apophysis 2.05b2}

Wow... someone else made a comment similar to that. Interesting. Now I'm going to have to take another look. I love fractals for that reason... there are so many things to see and each person sees it a little differently.

Before you... it might have been in one of the responses to my response... not sure... but someone else mentioned something a lot like that... hmmm... lots of "some's" there.... I'd better check on my grammar!

Thank you, dear... I appreciate the compliment! As I said, I wasn't really happy with the left side... but, for a first I suppose it's all right.

Thank you, dear... and yes, it does kinda look like two wings.

thats ok
maybe you should devide them and put then on something or divide them and make them both a matching pair.

Well, if I do post editing work then I could do that.. but I like to try to make the fractal just as it is.. and I'm not sure how I could do that in the fractal itself.

o ok. it was just an idea lol

Not sure how I'd go about doing it in post editing either.

the left side does seem a little rough though...

Any suggestions on how to fix it?
And thank you for the compliment!

im guessing problems with the file type?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, just the fractal itself. I don't like the way the left side turned out kinda raggedy rather than smooth like the right side... but everything I tried to fix it only made the problem worse.
Thanks for replying, Mohammed.

I'm not seeing "rough". I'm seeing pretty, although the red in the gradient is a tad overpowering. ZSteve gave you some excellent advice.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! Where I saw rough was at the tips of the left side... they are ragged rather than smooth. And yes, the orange was overpowering - and when I tried to tone it down, the rest of the fractal faded out. ARGHHHH... maybe this was just a bad gradient for this fractal. In the overly bright orange part, though, I felt that there was a "roughness" there that wasn't on the other side.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I'm trying. *smiles*

Well, I notice that a lot when I use Apophysis. The left half of the picture will always be brighter than the right half. I can't explain why, it just happens. Try what zsteve said, and do some postwork on your flame. It should look good in no time. It looks good anyways, in my opinion.
Nice job!

Interesting and thank you for the information! I do the post processing but I've never done post work in another program. Guess I will have to learn how to do that, hmmm?
Thank you again, I really appreciate it!

Quite stunning for a first, and stunning even if it weren't! You're doing well!

Thank you, Tarnee! I really appreciate the compliment. Maybe I'm too much of a perfectionist, hmm?

Dearest Friend I am amazed - I mean - how can you not be pleased with it??? Man this is great work... drool-worthy really
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Awww.. thank you, dear! I appreciate the compliment!!! I really do feel there's something wrong with the left side of the fractal. The colors are too bright and the form is too thick - as compared to the right side.
Again, honey, thank you so much for the compliment!
Hugs and love,

Both sides are perfect Anj
To me anyways
First you gotta please yourself, then you please everybody else

Thank you, Quwinz! Yup... gotta please myself. And I wasn't entirely please with this one. The left side, if you look closely, is a bit "fringie" on the tips and the orange area isn't as smooth as I would want it to be.

Anj

The world won't stop if its not 100%
Not to many things are that perfect.
Im sorry I don't have any suggestions on how to fix it
Still its very beautiful and you should be happy with it

Thank you very much, Quwinz... and I know what you mean. I'm very hard on myself when it comes to art... always have been. One of the reasons I could never be a traditional artist... I try to make things too perfect.
Hugs,
Anj
And no apologies on no suggestions to fix it! None are needed. *smiles*
