Why combine fractal art with photography here?

posted by Keith at

It just seems like a good fit to me. They have always had similarities, at least in my mind. A photographer can created a scene using existing shapes and colors and do so in a way that can touch you from the inside. So can a fractal artist.



Photographers can also hold their cameras out of the window of their cars and snap pictures of whatever they are driving by. Sometimes they might get lucky and find an amazing shot. Fractal artists can also snap pictures of whatever they are driving by and find something amazing.


Nature photographers like to explore. They are looking for the right subject in the right light with the right texture and color, and placing it in the right composition. This is exactly what fractal artists do.


The days of film are over. It's time to get digital. This implies that fractal artists and photographers can have a common skill set. They need to know how to process images in order to prepare them for display.

They just seem to fit together

Thanks for reading,

Keith
