Experiment in colors

[gnurf]

I was reading a Photoshop blog about an exhibition called something like Colors of Nature (or Colors In Nature) where the artist "stretched out" some colors and also left some object in the image in the new artwork. This is fairly simple in Photoshop where you can easily make a one pixel wide (or high) across the image. After that you just stretch that select from side to side. The technique is easy, the hard part is to find the right place to stretch so you get harmonious colors!
Anyway, I thought I should try that in Xtreme and this is what I came up with.

I found out that this technique is also very useful if you want to create a palette with limited colors.
