Just for Fun . . . Photoshop Fun, That Is

If you wanna have some Photoshop fun tonight, try the swirl technique on one of your images. Here is how to do it.

Open an image in Photoshop. Above is my original shot (enhanced with Topaz Adjust/Spicify to make the colors pop).

Go to: Filter > Distort > Polar Coordinates > Polar to Rectangular.

Next, go to Image > Rotation > Flip Vertically

Next, go to Filter > Distort > Polar Coordinates > Rectangular to Polar.


That's it.

If you want a square image (opening image for this post), make the height and width even in Image Size.

Explore the light,

P.S. My original picture was taken at the now-closed Magic Beach Hotel in St. Augustine, Florida.
