Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is a scene in the Z^(2.1)+C Mandeloid as it appears 24 levels up the ladder, where it resembles a Mandelbrot set rotated 180 degrees. What is normally the eastern side of the main bay now lies on the west end of the almost-M-set. A close examination reveals that East Valley, which is now a west valley, has developed a few spurious wannabe valleys, making the true East Valley rather hard to determine. Today's scene is located in one of these valleys. It might be East Valley; it might not be. Regardless, the distorted midget with its puffy yellow surroundings makes a rather striking picture. If I had given the image a rating, it would have earned about a 7. The render time of 3-3/4 minutes may be conveniently avoided by going to the FOTD web site at: A very noisy thunder-storm Sunday evening sent the fractal cats scurrying for cover in the back corner of the closet. A near perfect day Monday brought them out to enjoy the world. In my department, the work is temporarily caught up. I do not expect the catch-up to continue for long however. The next FOTD will likely appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and one of these days I think I'll write a letter to God. (I don't expect an answer.)
