It's So Cold the Stairs are Melting

Hanging out on the sofa on Saturday night, with computer, 2015 photo hard drive, and watching a hockey game. So hours to spend re-processing photos based on what I have learned from watching a YouTube on how to do more natural HDR. But then, I saw @rosiekerr 's post from yesterday of melting rainbow pencils and that was that. For the last hour, I've been melting all kinds of things from my photo library -- total fun! It's a filter in PS and easy to apply but doesn't work for many, if not most things. Check out Rosie's pencils which to me really use it well - http://365project.org/rosiekerr/365/2016-02-05 . This was the one I thought looked the least ridiculous of my results -- which says something.
Thanks for sharing the fun in finding the Red Hatted Runner. I tried to respond to each of you who couldn't find him, but just in case...I did post directions for finding him in the photo.
Crazy fantastic!!!!

Very cool effect - pun very much intended!! Here they would be melting because it's so hot - 40°C today and only going up tomorrow!
February 7th, 2016  
What a great effect! Love the craziness of it.
February 7th, 2016  
Looks like a fun effect to play around with on lots of different shots. Makes it all look a bit like molten metal.
February 7th, 2016  
What crazy effect -- my little brain can not cope first thing in the morning !! ha ha !!
February 7th, 2016  
What fun fabulous processing. Love it.

Absolutely fabulous, what a great effect. I must give this a try one day. Just need a few more hours in a day at the moment though. A big fav.

It looks like it should be a painting by Edvard Munch!
February 7th, 2016  
What fun!
February 7th, 2016

February 7th, 2016

February 7th, 2016  
Amazing effect. You almost feel dizzy looking at it.
February 7th, 2016  
Very abstract and wicked PS, love the effect. Another one of your photos that inspire me and I will try to emulate in the future. Thanx for sharing your fabulous photo.

HOW FUN!
February 7th, 2016  
I'd be hooked on that too. LOL
February 7th, 2016  
Very cool
February 7th, 2016  
@olivetreeann I AM hooked -- spent more time this morning with it!
February 7th, 2016  
Very freaky - good subject for it
February 7th, 2016  
Amazing melting stairs! I did a double take when I saw this on my feed. What fun!
February 7th, 2016  
@taffy That's how I was with Ribbet's "Hypnotic" effect. I can't tell you how many shots I processed with that one- I just didn't post them all! The only way I broke the habit was Ribbet started to charge for "premium" which included Hypnotic. By that time I'd bought Smart Photo Editor and I didn't think Ribbet was worth the $50 they were originally going to charge. But I do miss that effect...!

This is Titanic, after it sank.
February 7th, 2016  
@tunia That's an amazing idea -- the way it might look viewed through waves...I hadn't thought about it when I processed it.
February 7th, 2016  
Yes, Tunia is right. I looks like we are looking through water.
February 8th, 2016  
LOL Such a cool and creative shot. I think my eyes are playing tricks on me. ;)
February 8th, 2016  
This is so fun, and the caption is perfect.
February 8th, 2016  
very trippy cool
February 8th, 2016  
This totally works for this shot. What a fantastic filter to play.
February 8th, 2016  
Stunning picture and perspective. Congratulations on making the Trending Page. Well deserved.
February 8th, 2016  
This is totally cool! Looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland!!
February 8th, 2016  
Love this effect! Fav
February 8th, 2016  
great effect
February 8th, 2016  
OMG, this is wonderful, totally off the planet.
February 8th, 2016  
On your image the process works really well, it certainly makes the viewer do a double take.
February 8th, 2016  
Ha ha that sounds like me when I find a fun effect like this. Sometimes it's the ones you don't really expect to work which produce the most pleasing results. Very cool effect and I like Tunia's Titanic analogy. @tunia
February 8th, 2016  
How amazing and fun. I can see this could be addictive too. I better stay away!
February 8th, 2016  
Haha fun effect! Those would be a doozy to walk up on!
February 8th, 2016  
fun editing
