Mandelbulb3d v1.8.7 beta-3 testI was trying 's tut Isolating Structures In MB3DHow to clean up your image background ~
Wow. I haven't done a journal in ages. I thought I would share a little trick for getting a nice clean background when you want to isolate a structure in Mandelbulb 3D. Why? Because sometimes the structures behind the main focus of your image or the main structure are either just small repeats of the main structure, or they are fragmented and in one way or another just not as interesting. Or the background might bury the foreground object in detail or draw attention away from what you really want the viewer to focus on. People strive for a lot of detail, and that's fine, and sometimes it works. But often I find that there's no main focus to frame your point of view. (Edit: I forgot to mention this is made using Mandelbulb 3D version 1.8.2 and I fixed a few typo's!)
Sometimes you're able to focus on the foreground structure through clever use of fog, lights and depth of field settings. Nothing wrong with that either, so this is just another
Here is the result...Isolated the top portion of left picture...see the right one...
Thank you so much, Hal!!!

Nicely isolated, like the two images being together.
The isolated one looks like a complicated design for a zip

You isolation reminds me of a bee or a wasp!
Well done!
I bet this will make a big difference in how you present your fractals now! Don't you just love finding new and wonderfully useful techniques?
