These are great! It's funny; I also got the idea for my "composites" from Salavon's work.

Really, what you've created with your program touches me...I don't how to explain...at same time it's funny to see all those coincidences and ...it's so human...I agree, it's a work of art.

I am so fascinated by this set! And this one does capture the colors of each season...good idea to show all four together.

I think this is one of the best examples of the form in this set.

I also find it fascinating that the "normal" colors for the seasons come out as one might expect.

Very, very cool idea!

WOW! this might be my favorite one from your set. although i really liked beach and soup...like has already been said, i love how it ended up with the typical seasonal colors...really cool.

I just found out that jbum did something similar, only he tried to boil the seasons down to a single color.

The results tended to be orange, possibly because images in general tend to be of people. This technique may normalize that effect away.
