Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Another busy day today will keep the discussion short. Today's image is a new distortion of the midget that appeared in yesterday's FOTD image. But whereas yesterday's distortion was expected, today's is totally unexpected. I named it "The Unexpected Thing". The color palette, which gives the impression of a colorful midget remnant sitting isolated in the midst of a vast grey wasteland, is unusual enough to earn the image a rating of a 7. The relatively brief render time of 2 minutes raises this to an overall worth of 334. The scene may be seen  by running the parameter file or by downloading it from:Brisk winds and a chilly temparature of 43F 6C kept the fractal cats confined to the porch on Monday. Needless to say, tuna was needed. Today is starting even chillier. More tuna is likely to be needed. Incredibly enough, the non-fractal work, though heavy, is still caught up. To no one's surprise, the secret is to not let it fall behind. The fractals are doing rather well also, and the next one will appear in 24 hours. I might return to the M-Mix4 formula, or I might stay with the HyperMandelbrot. Until then, take care, and are fractals animal, vegetable, or mineral? Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
