Exploring the urban jungle

First of my new cut and twisted lazysusan-julians, a style I've rather neglected before.

Fireball

The soul-numbing sky-scorching terror of a close encounter with an astronomical body. How... suitable for the winter solstice ;)

Inner fire

The result of gnarling a rings2/julian!

Over the rooftops

A simple Sierpinski tile substituted with lazyjess - 'tis an awesome plugin for this style! I love the surreally recursive vistas of receding rooftops. Used the Stopping SL feature of Chaotica for the first time to retain a little grain.

The Calling

More glynnia goodness but straight, not gnarled ;)

Delta

Although this is only a simple twist on gnarled glynnias, the result is so different that it deserves its own moniker. Geological abstract? Whatever, it's something that needs to be rendered internally as Chaotica still renders some glynnias differently.

Nightlife

Stills from an extended 2 a.m. moment of liquid bliss. Hey, I remember these ;)

Chance migration of shoals

A bit of wordplay for the last of these gnarled glynnias.

The Marginals

Crammed with hints and glimpses of lifeforms and entities that inhabit the margins between sea and sand, between land and air, between waking and dreaming, between organ and organism...

Bracket fungi

A mycological feast!

In labyrinths of coral caves

Echoes of Pink Floyd ;)

Eclipse garden

A secret garden thriving on the low light levels of the solar eclipse, and whose twisted vistas and outrageous foliage appear only to the initiated ;)

Dying embers

A tweak from a different region of the previous flame. These use a refinement of my texturing and painting techniques that I hope to post about shortly!

A warm welcome

Another new plugin-inspired creation, this time idisc reworks. Back to that painted look.

Lunar exploration

Found some inspiration from this eclipse plugin!
