Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: "Iterative Beacons" is the name which, for some reason, I gave to today's scene in East Valley of the Mandelbrot set. The location of the scene is not unusually deep in East Valley, but it is located in a valley of a bud of a bud of a bud, and is therefore very remote. The little bit of extra work I did on the coloring raises the image rating to a respectful 6. With a maxiter of 5000000, the scene is a very slow one, taking several hours to render on all but the fastest machines, which can complete it in under 10 minutes. Unless your computer is near state-of-the-art, I recommend downloading the completed GIF image from the FOTD web site at: With a high temperature of 86F 30C, it was actually a bit too warm here at Fractal Central on Tuesday. The cat duo responded by shifting into stretch mode and sleeping. Today is starting about the same; I expect more of the same from the cats. For me the work is moderate. Hopefully, the next fractal, which will appear in 24 hours, will be superior. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
