Planetary Eyes by Tom Pickering, APSA

January 2018 - Planetary Eyes

About the Image(s)

Another space scene with a twist. Experimenting still with Serif's Affinity Photo, I assembled some planets I had made several months back with some eyes created in Filter Forge 7. Kinda creepy I think. Suggestions?

This is so weird. What in this wacky world inspires you to use these extra-ordinary creations?? Totally awesome.

Only thing in this world responsible for such creations is my wacky brain. d;¬{D   Posted: 01/06/2018 00:00:18

I guess you could call it creative. Some might call it delusional. d;¬{D   Posted: 01/06/2018 09:49:39

If your objective was for creepiness, you succeeded. I feel like I am being viewed from two different angles. The sky is very interesting. The subject is beyond any suggestions for change. However, I think I will avoid this room in the future. :)

At least you know what to expect in this room. Who knows what lurks behind the door of other rooms in my mind! d;¬{Ð   Posted: 01/21/2018 11:47:20



 
I like it. I was thinking to add some radiance from the eyes - like on the back of a $1 bill. http://c8.alamy.com/comp/HMM30C/macro-closeup-eye-pyramid-on-back-of-dollar-bill-HMM30C.jpg

Maybe each eye has a radiance pointing towards each other.   Posted: 01/18/2018 18:22:52

Hmmmm . . . Not picturing this yet in my warped mind's eye, but will certainly play around with it. d:¬{D   Posted: 01/21/2018 11:48:47



 
Whoa! That really is weird and creepy. The Photoshop work was well done, though, and it's cool in its own way.   Posted: 01/19/2018 08:18:21
