Hi All 👋 My latest entry for The Squirrel Chase challenge.
All my editing for this post was done using Canva.
This is the original shot of the Kelpies.

This first edit is using one of the Canva paint effects — mosaic. There are various settings where you can control the opacity & size of the mosaic. I kept the settings low so that the Kelpies can be seen for what they are.

The next is a smear effect; again I’ve kept the settings low.

The last is a polar pixelation; the picture is seperated into segments around a central point. Less segments leads to greater distortion & the picture becomes unrecognisable. I went for the max number of segments to keep the effect subtle.

Great to hear your thoughts!
