Description When I think of summer, I think of the beach. One of our favorite outings during the summer is a trip to the beach.

This is all totally made with UF 4.02 and only a little sharpening with The Gimp.

I can imagine very well how difficult it was to create the water/waves Mary.
But the result tells its own tale. I really like the idea and the way you have
realised the idea.

MrThunderfield [2006-06-17 12:53:27 +0000 UTC]

No way! You didn't just make each thing by itself in UF, then pile it all together in GIMP?

Anyway, awesome summer fractal

FireLilyFractals In reply to MrThunderfield [2006-06-17 15:59:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Actually I piled it all together in UF and just sharpened it a little in the Gimp. UF is awesome in that you can layer things.

Thanks, you are so sweet to think of it. But, if you look at the Category, you will see that I submitted it as such.

LordFlasheart In reply to FireLilyFractals [2006-06-18 15:52:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh good! I wasn't paying enough attention. I was just up late, and kinda jittery and still can't calm down totally (my journal tells why) and I just kind wrote the note as one of the things that popped in my head to do, both to remind of the contest and to try and calm down. I hope you win!

Well, it looks like it wasn't a poisonous type, so that's a slight relief.

FireLilyFractals In reply to LordFlasheart [2006-06-20 16:22:47 +0000 UTC]

That's good! It pays to know what the poisonous snakes in your area look like.

LordFlasheart In reply to FireLilyFractals [2006-06-21 06:22:29 +0000 UTC]

Until recently I didn't even know there were any, and some of the people around here have diferent opinions on wether there are any or not, but I know there are because of my friend's first hand account.

Don't know if I would make any more like this. It was just an experiment to see if I could do it. It was fun but frustrating, and I am still not totally happy with it. Thanks for the comment.

I like the fact that you could even make something like this. Who'd've thought?

FireLilyFractals In reply to LaPurr [2006-06-17 18:34:42 +0000 UTC]

The really hard part was making the water look right. I had been seeing a lot of shell shapes in exploring different ucls and had saved some in the past. Shells are very fractal in nature.

LaPurr In reply to FireLilyFractals [2006-06-17 23:39:53 +0000 UTC]

Yes, they are...especially the wonderfully curving and twisting ones. I love those types of shells.
