Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: On my machine, today's image from the May parent takes 52 minutes to render. But when I spent the 3/4 hour rendering it, the result was worth the effort, as the midget in the image is one of the most unusual I have yet encountered. The scene is located in the East Valley area of a distorted Mandeloid on the northeast edge of the prominent fan-shaped element of the parent fractal. I named the image "Rosebuds". A careful search will reveal the rosebuds in the chaotic region surrounding the midget. And that chaotic region is quite chaotic. Total chaos is sometimes seen around midgets; no chaos at all is sometimes seen. But the mixture of chaos and order that fills today's image is unusual indeed. The rating of 7 is earned honestly. The excessive render time can be avoided by downloading the image from the following internet addresses: The clouds moved in on schedule here at Fractal Central on Thursday, but the rain held off. As a result, the cats had an unexpectedly pleasant day. This morning the rain is already falling, so their day will be far less pleasant. I've got about the usual amount of work to accomplish, so until next FOTD, take care, and walk with fractals. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
