Week 3

10/20/18

A double feature to end the week:

#1

Board Size: 61×61

Edits:  I rotated the image such that the right side of these used to be the bottom side.  

Notes:  There’s a reason I put this one at the end of the week (see: 10/14/18).  

Alternates:  When I rotated the pattern in my program, I forgot to rotate the similarity shading file(s), which resulted in an interesting look:  one   two.

#2

Board Size:  61×61

Edits:  None

Notes: I’m going to stop telling people why they should like the images that I pick (until tomorrow).  

Alternates:  one  two (admittedly, I probably like this version better despite trying to convince myself that I don’t).

Board Size:  68×67

Edits: None

Notes:  I was going to write something comparing this pattern to yesterday’s pattern, but didn’t.  

Alternates:  one   two

unedited version

Edits and Notes:  All of the line edits I made were to the 7 short lines inside the thin strip surrounded by the peachy line that cover just 1.4% of the cells.  The main reason was to accentuate the little curl that the peachy and indigo lines do in the center since I had seen other versions that I think did this better.  

I also wanted to point out how the cyan line looks sharp partly because it is the only bright line without any white mixed in, then I saw that it actually wasn’t pure cyan, then I made it so it was, and then it became even more sharper than it was before

Board Size:  61×61

Edits:  A couple of basic slider effects done on my phone.  See the original version.

Notes:  The colors and the pattern both capture major features that I have been hoping to find in an image good image to use for the image of the day:  darkish colors with lots of blue/green and pink; and the circularish thing that the purply pink lines squiggle their way through.

Board Size:  60×60

Edits:  I increased the line glow and line width slightly and made two minor line edits on the left side:  the short orangey-gold line in the top left used to be more olivey, and the aquamarine line used to be spring green.  See the original image.

Notes:  The colors remind me of my first set of crayola crayons.

Board Size: 72×71

Edits:  None 

Notes:  After taking a week off, I felt like starting out with something relatively modest, similar to the first image of the day.  

I really like the effect that the similarity shading has on these images – enough that I used the first image to demonstrate the six different shading combinations.  Both of these have blue/green shading.  This version has red/green shading:

The reason I decided to include this much less modest version on the page (as opposed to a link) is that I realized at some point that all three images share one major unusual feature: lots of orange and green.
