As I developed the formula for this fractal image, I couldn't help but see forms reminiscent of the Native American Thunder Bird. I created this image with a combination of the programs Vchira and Photoshop.

Another in the Psychedelic Fractals Dude series, this image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop layering and filtering effects.

When putting together the fractal formula for this image experiment, I was struck by how much these fractal forms reminded me of trilobites, with psychedelic color dressings. I created this image using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop layering and filtering effects.

Often fractal patterns can be reminiscent of living creatures, actual or mythical. Here we see patterns evocative of Asian dragons writhing in fiery skies. I created this image with a combination of the programs Vchira and Photoshop.

With special layering effects, fractal images can have a vivid and even psychedelic impact. I created this image using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering.

A few years back I did a series of abstract images I called my KaleidoCross Series. This image is just one small sample of the images from this series. I achieved these images with a combination of several filter effects in Photoshop.

Within the program Bryce, the metaballs feature can be used to create some pretty cool stuff. From a series of experiments, I created this 3D abstraction combining the metaballs feature along with a multi-replicate formulation.

Sometimes fractals can be used to create wildly psychedelic images. This one embodies just such a richness of psychedelia. This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.

Often random patterns of nature show up in fractal images. When I was working on this fractal image, I saw forms that reminded me of crab pinchers here and there in the fractal shapes. Unfortunately, they are less apparent in this reduced resolution version, but if you look closely you can still see them. This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.

originally conceived of using this image as an illustration of how the apparent random patterns of nature, such as meanderings of rivers aren't random, but rather governed by complex fractal geometry, in my Relijournal article, Is it Irrational to Believe in God? found at: http://www.relijournal.com/Religion/Is-It-Irrational-to-Believe-in-God.88670 This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.

I originally conceived of using this image as an illustration of the order found in the chaotic patterns of fractal geometry in my Relijournal article, Is it Irrational to Believe in God? found at: http://www.relijournal.com/Religion/Is-It-Irrational-to-Believe-in-God.88670 This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.

I originally conceived of using this image as an illustration of the inherent dichotomy between the concepts of Infinite Nothing, and an Infinite Cosmic Creative Force in my Relijournal article, Is it Irrational to Believe in God? found at: http://www.relijournal.com/Religion/Is-It-Irrational-to-Believe-in-God.88670 This image was created using a combination of the fractal generator, Vchira, along with Photoshop filtering effects.
