Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is named "Fake True-Color". I gave it this name because the elements are so finely divided and so random that the effect almost mimics a true-color image with its millions of colors. The rating of a 6 is once again a bit less than what I hoped to achieve. But fractals are like that. A fractalist cannot always be sure of what will lie at the end of the day's search. The parent fractal of today's image is surprisingly simple -- a flat green disk with a spot of chaotic debris off to the east. The image is located where least expected -- in this spot of debris, on a poorly marked filament leading to a Mandelbrot bud. With a running time of 1-1/4 hours on my fractal machine, the parameter file is annoyingly slow. But I have sent the completed image on ahead to Paul, who will post it on the FOTD web site at: Very warm and humid weather on Tuesday kept the dynamic duo lazy. Their greatest activity came at 11pm, when a thundershower came up and sent them scurrying into the large closet for safety. Today is starting a bit less humid but still warm. If it doesn't thunder, the duo will have a good day. For me it will be work and fractals, but what the heck, it's a life. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
