Krakatoa and 100 million particles

A small amount by some standards. Bobo posted a really cool looking image the other day during a discussion about pflow and nice turbulent wind. This is what I came up with. It is comprised of 10 partitions of a 10 million particle flow. The color is generated via Krakatoa Channel Modifier based on age and emission (self illumination) is controlled by particle density.

   It is a simple KCM, just color based on age and lifespan. It is natural behaviour for Krakatoa to render brighter where concentrations of particles are more dense when using the emission channel.

   Hey, I just thought I’d share, I used part of this image for a Christmas card to my friends and family. Great stuff!
