It's so funny that I missed this one. Well worth playing with! Good find Sallyanne!

I created a simple black and white image of a simple recursive oval in alternating black and white rings. I changed the colors to red and blue and ran the Warp by Intensity on it. I see some valuable benefits to this function!

As long as no one will propose a situation in which it "may" be useful, I consider this effect as one of those inventions of a remedy without any illness requiring it (the classical "solution" of a non-existent problem).
But -who knows- there are so many "creative" here around....

I must agree. The original (Grand Daughter?) is much better left un-touched, aside from removing red eye distortion. This may be OK for an in-animate object, but not for a real person......

Just my 2-cents.

Would you believe that photo of the girl is one I got off the internet - a PD photo.
I wouldn't use it for a person I know unless they wanted to see themselves distorted.

@dinassett, only thing I can see it to be useful for is manipulating. Maybe as PM said make a fun image.
