This week in SSC:

"The Droste Effect"

The Droste Effect has us seeing some interesting visions and features an image that reappears within itself. I've had GIMP on my computer for a while now and finally figured out how to do something with it this week. This was a lot of fun and a lot of learning just how to use the different tools available and there are lots! The end result has little Gus peering into various possible inner visions. Which one will he choose?

...and for Sight and Sound:

Stevie Wonder from his "Innervisions" album (1973)

Hi Karen,

This is amazingly clever, and I like it a lot.
As you know, I use GIMP, but I have nowhere near your flair for creativity and imagination, so no way could I have ever done this! I am in awe!!

I hope you are continuing to have a great Thanksgiving holiday weekend

Best wishes
Peter

Thank you so much for such high praise, Peter. You could do it. I had no luck with GIMP until I searched for some tutorials on YouTube. That got me started and now I think I will be more likely to explore GIMP more often.

I bet you could do some amazing things with your wonderful trains. :)

Great to see you used GIMP too, Karen :-) This is a delight :-) Love the choice of subject and the Droste Effect works a treat. So effective in mono too. A clever musical match and a goodie by Stevie Wonder.

Thank you for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

Thanks so much, Roger, for your kind words! :)
