Rope abstract 01

This was an exercise in doodling in Photoshop Elements! Starting from the adjoining photo of rope and other shore detritus the image has been rendered unrecogniseable, so I decided that the little section in the middle of the curl should be a window back into the tangled mess that came before.
If you can work out which effects have been used I shall be surprised. There are some obvious ones like 'twirl' and 'chrome', but most of them I can't remember and I certainly couldn't repeat the process!
