Photography Challenge: Turn a Scene Into a Photo Planet (Part 2)
I had so much fun with last week’s challenge that I decided to try it again!
This time around I photographed a stack of old San Francisco MUNI bus Fast Passes that I’ve held onto for years because I just love their colors and patterns.
This challenge required the application and fine-tuning of the Polar Coordinates Photoshop filter to make a regular image spherical.
Instead of turning a landscape into a photo planet with this technique as photographers generally do I wanted to play with repeating patterns for a more kaleidoscopic effect.
I also made some additional adjustments to give the photo the style I was looking for.
Here is the original photo that I worked from:
Studio Candelabra 
I love this new version, how it goes bake in time with each circle, the endless rides on Muni! Pretty and dizzy….
Not bake in time….Back in time!!
Thanks for your fabulous comments, FabS! ❤
That’s a lot of Muni passes over-the-years! But done beautifully! Wonderful design style and colorful. Like a kaleidoscope. Or looking down into or up at the rabbit hole Alice went into. There’s only one Fast Pass that’s different. A “D” instead of an “A”. I can’t remember why different. Keep up on your creative talents Linda Sue!
Roger, you are wonderful to leave such nice and encouraging comments! Eternal thanks, my friend!
