Hall of mirrors effect

Another special effect using the Adobe Photoshop filters… This time, the original image is ‘pinched’. In so doing, it creates a curious effect where the two acrobats remain the most proportional, and everything else around them are distorted and pulled towards the centre. Somehow, the distorted figures  (especially the clown with the elongated neck) seems to attract as much, if not more attention than the acrobats. It feels like we are looking at the image reflected from a distorted mirror.
