Hello, I have just found this article compilation about 32 beautiful and well done image optical illusions made using the Droste Effect
Droste Effect: 32 Stunning Photoshop Illusions I have found that there is available this Droste Spiral by Egret filter that is to be able to do this. Please, could be possible to know how to use this in the best way to get similar effects than the ones shown in the article link above ? What is the best way to prepare a photo to be used with this FF filter ? I can´t use any photo or image that is square, rectangular or have any kind of frame, because then you a bad cut rectangular frame all over the image(as you can see also in the preset of the filter) and it seems that it only works on isolated images that have a transparent background behind and does not touch the border of the photo, so must have like a transparent frame around. Is this then the only way to be able to get this effect ? Should I then prepare the photo with a transparent frame all around the photo I want to use to create this effect in Filter Forge ? Thanks very much for your help Here I have selected 11 photos from the ones available above NUMBER 1 ![]() NUMBER 2 ![]() NUMBER 3 ![]() NUMBER 4 ![]() NUMBER 5 ![]() NUMBER 6 ![]() NUMBER 7 ![]() NUMBER 8 ![]() NUMBER 9 ![]() NUMBER 10 ![]() NUMBER 11 ![]() |

I have already put many of my own created examples in the thread of the Droste Spiral here if you want to see them
http://www.filterforge.com/forum/read...1&TID=7568 BUT NONE of them are similar and well done as the examples shown above, so I will see how to get a better way to make this kind of effects making a research in google. |

I have found why the Droste Spiral of Filter forge does not give the same options and kind of images as shown above, because the Droste Effect is MUCH more complex than what is available in the FF filter.
I have put a new thread to explain this in more detail. Please see this thread, and look from the middle of the first post what are the differences Making photos with the Droste Spiral effect inside Photoshop and FF |

I have just found by chance another website with 20 more examples of beautiful droste effect filter that I think is MORE than simple droste effect and is said that this follows the conformal mapping ?
