Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Fractal Central is quite chilly today due to a failure of the area gas main, which somehow filled with water and cut the supply. But despite the indoor temperature of 57F 14C, the fractal of the day is hot. Today's fractal trip takes us rather deep into East (Elephant) Valley of the Mandelbrot set, where the elements are quite pinched off. After a brief search, we find and check a tiny midget surrounded by seashell-like features. I gave the image no name, but despite the minimum effort I put into it, the result is worth a rating of a 7, which is how I rated it. The render time of 3-3/4 minutes will be cut to a matter of seconds on the present day fireball units, assuming, that is, that the fireball unit in question is not over-qualified or vesa-deprived. In any case, the completed GIF image is posted on the FOTD web site at: With the temperature inside dropping toward the temperature outside, the fractal cats were hard pressed to find warm comfort. Luckily, an emergency space heater saved the day for them. For me, the work room was quite chilly, but the work was accomplished. With the crew from the gas company still trying to figure things out, tomorrow is likely to be another chilly but productive day. Until next FOTD, which is due in 24 hours, take care, and keep a stiff but not frozen upper lip. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
