Collaborative Art Journey..."Wrinkles in Time" No. 32 - My first entry - Eternal butterfly

in collaborativeartjourney •  7 years ago  (edited)

This is my fun-creation with Gimp and GiftedMotion - of course, under Ubuntu Linux!

I used some of my pictures as layers: a butterfly, a fractal and a photo of winter trees taken yesterday. The original photo of @everlove is in the background.

This is the original photo of @everlove:

This is my butterfly in PNG, background deleted:

This is my fractal image, rendered with JWildfire:

First, i combined it with my fractal, the unneccessary parts were rubbed in Gimp:

Then desaturated, and put a butterfly on them:

Saturated again, with the butterfly:

Desaturated again (instead of the butterfly), then copied a new layer of the forest (inverted), under the butterfly layer:

The last phase was the easiest with GiftedMotion, it took only some seconds to interlace the pictures in one gif.

Ooooooo....so many contributing layers to this awesomeness @kalemandra! That fractal image is super interesting - reminds me of a snake skin! I love the movement through creation. Truly brilliant. Thanks for playing....again!! <3

Haha! Such a great idea. Love how all the elements go together. I love fractals and combining them with photography is so nice.

Dropped you a follow for this. Have a wonderful day!

The last grey with the colored butterfly is my favorite!

This is so cool. I love 'making ofs'.
