Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's FOTD is late again . . . no surprise in that. I'm still busy. But I have finally managed to find an image that rates above a 6. True, at a rating of 7, it's only a single step above 6, but it's a start. I named the image "Veiled Objects" when I noticed that the smaller features seem to be draped over the larger objects like a gossamer veil. To create the image I unpacked number 6 in my series of 12 MandNewt formulae. This formula is a random variation of the Ikenaga function, and the Ikenaga function is a minor mystery. The image takes 8-1/2 minutes to render at a low-resolution SF5, but the highest resolution available is needed to do it justice. The image may be seen by running the parameter file at the resolution of your choice, or by downloading the GIF file from: The fractal weather today was cloudy but dry, with a temperature of 68F (20C). The fractal cats approved of the conditions. That's it for today. I've got a busy day ahead of me, and it's time to get to work. Until next time, take care, and hug at least one fractal every day.
