Conformal Mapping of a Butterfly

...

Continuing to play with the conformal mapping in search of "newimaginary worlds".

Thanks for looking.

I really like this photo.

The orginal photo is quite exquisite in itself, but your treatment opens up a whole new dimension to the image previously unthought of (by me at least) I like the resulting surreal alien looking vortex, with the creature lurking within.

Original and creative idea!

Best Regards

As I said before, they are both great, the original and the abstract made out of it!

Best regards Tibi!

Excellent abstract of this butterfly! Never thought of giving one a 'twirl' but it is most effective. Nice work!

kind regards, Gail

Thank you all for the supporting critique. The technique (as stated in the title) has it's root in the theory of complex functions. The particular mapping I used (based on the function 1/z) will take the inside of a given circle and replace it with it's outside (so that the points on the circle itself stay in place.
