Mosaic


I just thought I'd share this with you. It's a mosaic portrait Jim Bumgardner created of little old me, using photomosaic software he wrote himself.

You have to zoom in to see the full effect; the picture is made up of thousands of individual photographs of flowers. I think it's fantastic!

Jim is a bit of a Flickr star, he designed Colrpickr, a brilliant tool that finds pictures on Flickr based on colour. He also co-wrote the book Flickr Hacks, among many other projects. I feel quite honoured to be the subject of one of his works!

Sylvia  That looks awesome. 
Joanna  Nice work! And a proper mosaic rather than just tinting the pictures. Very cool. 
Alli' Cat'  Following your link to Jim Bumgardner (snigger - childish I know, but hey?), I stumbled across this site: "http://www.josleys.com/index.php". If you like Escher, tessellations, fractals, etc. then check out his work. Don'cha just love t'interweb!
P.S. flattered, or what? 
sim  ooo nifty ! 
Freiya  neat-o! 
Isobel  PLEASE, don't ask me to identify them ;o) 
Penny M  Great! Jim's automated Chuck Close!
