## Hello, Alien Artists! 👽 😎 I used to be really into kaleidoscopes a few years ago, but not so much anymore. I've always found these colorful structures fascinating. Even as a child, I had an optical toy with mirrors placed at angles, and when I moved the glass fragments of different colors, they created changing color patterns. Years ago, I had over a [hundred posts](https://ecency.com/hive-158694/@seckorama/kaleidoscopes-104-singularity) about kaleidoscopes in Hive (and even in Steemit), where I made kaleidoscopes from my photos with various add-ons/plug-ins in graphics software. It was quite an exciting experience. Although look that they may appear from another dimension, a photo captured at a specific moment, frozen in time, and transformed into a colorful structure still reflects our reality. It is an image from our world; only the viewer's perspective is altered. But the desire to generate kaleidoscopes is still here :) ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmR9iEBN2t1oKWgXuf6nxkMN6CaUVm3VPQ3gW7en9CLohJ/kaleido1.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQhzasjMnmgDQS52RECUwu7AbgD4YLKfEiW1Xx4pby3Gq/kaleido1a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdmt1kAGGQmtBwZiBbvHk62Cqgk8zbVW7myNDSyN3pdHF/kaleido2a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmUadpMeU6gymSUKKWbo1UBDxTZoP7B8qWUHNpm3QJFucf/kaleido3.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmYzQxgNvm1dwSwRuzHNGTSjBtS6YgLbSVsEtExZ77APCh/kaleido3a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmb5zv9RxnzQw6wiq318XAq4ZZnekYXguPcHe1j4veda54/kaleido4.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 I created twenty kaleidoscopes from a single photo using Photoshop Mehdi Kaleidoscope Filter and Paint.Net Distort DPL Kaleidoscope effect. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmUodzLHsBx9KbJSARDXGNJ5hJ91jNVmSQFqNB8KzoE7ft/kaleido4a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmbxZhvz1fyVpgRPjFS8k4oqtsStx58ks1DN1V4nYcyccc/kaleido5.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNxgEWQKvTwnw9Daz5fQnXgedxcH2w6E1sKNLhr5vYr6y/kaleido5a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmS3XTjDNwoJs4mVR4SXoY6grcjB3TwsdKkVmpi3L7RWD4/kaleido6.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQtBAC9nMcAyhbkMur9BqWEXtVDAc4vuYMRtR9WehXNH1/kaleido6a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZ99TiVikRLwPKZXB9XxQ2TZLbmbinQANFYZvHJx6Scfm/kaleido7.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmbhymsS8QigpwaxxSxjGUeHWNwrFvY4YJ3LB3mV3bTLZn/kaleido7a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 Using these tools is not the same as using a physical kaleidoscope, where you rotate mirrors, and then patterns and structures are formed from colored pieces of glass. It combines mirroring, image multiplication, zoom, and rotation. You can have endless fun with it. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmVzjo4YxsGfuWx8PTyQUHScsArepxRyyBY9GqkHkqaWPE/kaleido8.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmbTGkvUWsuMAwjAY5vxvBu8fT5ChkY9cNoEwUb2qKMu5U/kaleido8a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdP6mGouy4Z7DRh1pPhuYKb96FKaFfqhABxpXPhRG9NsD/kaleido9.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmQBUbVYuwZtMuayUdDHHsycwWzFoEFnAbjw7Mvp43fHme/kaleido9a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmRT93LCSMjsV9zufkFc7AWzQ39gT1McNNxjaoGEr1ZQAD/kaleido10.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmWkrJRo99uuJESTFe6ANQ5iHoZjM8j3BEhT6238wWeqUY/kaleido10a.webp) 👽 👾 😎 👾 👽 I have not used AI tools in this, only Photoshop and Paint.net. Of course, there's the photo from which I generated all these kaleidoscopes. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmWYfno8fokY2FjxUhxVbKYkzk45trfr4Acskt4DopFZqd/kaleido11.webp) This is a photo of a flower. In our country, it's called an Amaryllis, and it's from the [Hippeastrum family](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippeastrum). In my experience, photos of flowers are very suitable for generating kaleidoscopes. That's all for today.
