Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is a scene in the fractal created by the formula Z^(2.5)-Z^(-1.5)+(1/C). This parent fractal is a hugely sprawling thing with a disproportioned and twisted Mandeloid near the center. Today's image is located in what I assume is the East Valley of the parent. I cannot be sure it is the East Valley because the Mandeloid is distorted almost beyond recognition. Once again, I gave the image no rating and no name. If I had rated the image, it would have earned about a 7. If I had named it, I would have given it a name associated with diamonds. The 19-minute render time is slower than recent images, but the result is better, making the overall worth about the same. As almost always, the completed GIF image is available on the FOTD web site at: Typical midwinter weather kept the fractal cats close to home again on Wednesday here at Old Fractal Central. A combination of regular work and moving preparations kept me very busy. The next FOTD, which I hope will be a further improvement, will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be at one with the object or principle of your choice. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
