Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Re-organization has been going better than anticipated here at New Fractal Central. As a result, we are close to the point where the FOTD can resume its daily schedule, with new and even greater fractal scenes to come. But we are not quite yet at that point, so there could easily be occasional missing FOTD's over the next few weeks. Today's image shows what the Fractint biomorph option can do. I applied to a midget deep in the fractal that results when Z^(-2.8) is subtracted from Z^(-1.1) and (1/C) is added. The image resembles nothing so much as a fancy floral arrangement. Since I put very little effort into the image, I have given it no name or rating, but it really is worth a quick look. The render time of under 5 minutes is brief enough to make running the included parameter file almost enjoyable. Total enjoyment may be found by visiting the FOTD web site at: Clouds, cool temperatures and occasional showers continued here at New Fractal Central on Thursday. Sadly, we do not yet have fractal cats to report on, but I expect a couple eager new guys to appear within a week or so. The next FOTD is due in 24 hours. From the way things are going, it might actually make it. Until next time, take care, and if everything is fractal, then nothing is not fractal. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
