Flash kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscopes are terrific!  Translucent, colorful, sparkly mandalas!


Like I need another way to waste time in front of the computer.
This digital kaleidoscope by Dinesh Vora is a wonderful thing to stare at for a while. (You'll have to go to the link to see it.)
Also, if you move the mouse over the image you can affect its movement.

(The kaleidoscope: another great thing invented by a Scot: Sir David Brewster, 1817)

    Did you know you can download softward to use your own images to make kaleidoscopes? Millions of different designs are possible just by using a different part of your image and different templates. Check out: http://www.kaleidoscopecollections.com

      Well. I will definitely check that out when I have better computer access! (We're on vacation right now and am using my iPhone and my husband's tempramental little notebook computer.) Thanks!
