FOTD -- December 06, 2005   (Rating 5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Let the trumpets blare, let the cats rejoice.   I'm back!   And I have already created another fractal.

Unlike carbs and trans-fats, today's fractal is most certainly not hazardous to your health.   It is a harmless Julia set of the Z^(1.3)+C Mandeloid as it appears 13 levels up the logarithmic ladder to infinity.   The large inside part of the image has been activated by the 'bof60' inside fill.

I named the image "Berries Went Away" because an earlier version of the image looked like a pile of blackberries, and, while trying to decide on a name, I heard a news report on the radio that, due to legal problems, electronic blackberries might soon become useless.   (I couldn't be less concerned.)

Mostly due to its amber coloring, the image rates a 5, which is the every-day average.   The render time of just under 1-1/2 minutes will be reduced to mere seconds on the fastest machines.

But some fast S.O.T.A. machines are allergic to Fractint.   Those with such delicate prima-donna units can see the image by going to the FOTD web site at:
http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html
and see the image posted there, without the chore of running the parameter file.

The weekend search for the new Fractal Central went reasonably well.   We checked two properties in Lewisburg, which is located in the Susquehanna Valley area of central Pennsylvania.   But we have much more shopping to do before we make a final decision.

Temperatures that were too chilly for comfort limited the cats' outdoor time over the past few days.   But my sister, who kept the cats from becoming lonely while we were away, and also kept them overfed, reports that the duo made the most of things, taking brief advantage of the few rays of sun that managed to filter through the clouds and holly trees, while enjoying the extra-generous treats of tuna.

Until the next FOTD appears in 24 hours or so, start taking care again.
