I think the cylinders came out pretty good. The plane one seems too
plain (no pun intended), too uniform, but it has some interesting
shapes. It's like the walls of a big mound of suds. Anyway here they
are, making eight total...

Hmm, I wonder, looking back on all of these, what do you think of them
as a group? IMHO they go nice together, but individually the original
three are best.

Dave, I think these (and the previous ones) are very nice.  This is
the sort of thing I had in mind when I brought up the possibility
of an abstract or nonrepresentational round of the IRTC!

I have heard a definition of abstract art that it has little intrinsic
value.
Abstract raytracing generally has smaller code than "photorealistic"
traces and practically any values will fit, so it has high intrinsic
value provided the methods are appearant. :-)

As an experiment, I ran the cylinders through Photoshop's
Polar-Rectangular filter and applied some Unsharp Mask to clean up the
edges a bit. What resulted tiled horizontally seamlessly, and when
tiled, gave a gorgeous (if incredibly distracting) "cave of jewels" effect.

I suspect that the other images in this series would behave the same.

You know, these would look pretty cool as a bauble on a shelf or something in
part of a bigger scene. Or maybe on the desk of some necromancer or
something. Is the source available?

Thanks,
Derek

Of course, they are 360 fisheye views. And AFAIK fisheye=polar...
