kaleidoscope edit

my process:

Firstly I opened up one of my images on photoshop and changed the canvas size by doubling the with of the image to the left side and making it red so that I could clearly see where my original image was.
I then selected the red side with the ‘magic wand tool’ and right clicked to select inverse so that my original image was selected, I then layer via copied my image so that I had two of them.
I used CTRL + T to select the second layer/image and right clicked to distort. By doing this it allowed me to flip the second image over onto the red side mirroring my original image.
Once I had done that I repeated the same process however, this time I doubled the height to the bottom, mirroring my edited image.
Finally I flattered my image to save it.

my edits:

Overall I like how my edits have turned out and I think this style is very intriguing for the viewer as the mirroring of the images draws your eyes into the centre then allowing you to look further out to the rest of the image which is full of detail and different tones.
