Thank you all.

Jon, I also like the squiggly image. A church interior reflected in the baptismal font? That's my guess anyway.

Bryan, You are very close to being correct! This image started out as an interior shot of St. John the Baptist Cathedral that is located in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. When I made it, I did not have a tripod, and it was shot a 3200 ISO. So, a lot of image noise. I don't have a computer with a multi-gigabyte memory image processor. So, no way to improve it. A guy I know on Fred Miranda always shoots high ISO and has been using solarization with his images. Recently he has been slightly distorting the images. I thought I would try to do this. Well, my first attempt was not slight! But, it was interesting! This one is not solarized. I tried that, but did not like the result, so just left it in B&W.

A wild distortion Jon.

Jon Oman posted the really squiggly thing.

OK, Jon - what is it?

See the above ramble where I explained it to Bryan!

I see! It was very sharp, so my second guess was a digital effect. A couple of months ago I posted this image with a reflection in a font so was thinking similarly.

Speaking of that trip, I only just now developed some color film from it. We visited the National Corvette Museum on our way back from Louisville (sadly without my Corvette as it was running poorly) and I shot some Atlanta Film Co. 500T (Vision3) film in the museum:





Developed here in C-41 chems with a baking soda pre-bath.
