Kaleidoscope - Waterfall

This is my waterfall kaleidoscope.  I really like how it came out and how it makes the appearance of all the waterfalls coming together. The symmetry is pretty good and the balance of colors works well.  The lines across the top left corner to the bottom right are signs that one selection was not completely straight.

Kaleidoscope- Beach

This is my beach kaleidoscope.  I think it is pretty symmetric and has good balance.  I also like the colors with the light blue of the ocean and all the different colors of the sand.

Kaleidoscope - Owl

This is the owl image that i chose to use.  It is completely symmetrical and  I think it has really good balance.  I like how the grays, browns, and oranges all blend together, but stand out at the same time. I did not think this image would turn out how it did when i started out but i am excited how it now looks.

Kaleidoscope Images



These are my three kaleidoscope images. I did the beach one using the directions, and the waterfall one similarly following the directions but i didn't use a new part of the picture for the additional kaleidoscope. Lastly, the owl kaleidoscope i similarly followed the directions but did not add the extra step because i really liked how all the eyes look.  I thought that overall, this was a very successful project after the first image was complete. You had to work through some things and figure them out until you got it done the right way. I really liked finding simple pictures and turning them into complex images.
