Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: While studying yesterday's image this morning, I started wondering what the Julia set of the scene might look like. To find out, I entered the parameters into the 'julzpower' formula and let the iterations fly. Just under 10 minutes later I had my answer. As expected, the Julia set of yesterday's scene closely resembles the scene itself. If anything, the herringbone pattern is even more pronounced, which is the reason I named the image "Herringbone Julia". I rated the image the same as yesterday's -- a 7.5. In my opinion, the image is worth it. The render time of over 10 minutes is a bit slow for today's busy fractalist. But at the FOTD web site, relief is at hand for those on the go. The web site may be accessed at: A mostly sunny but chilly and blustery day here at Fractal Central on Saturday gave a real feeling of autumn to the air. The temperature of 54F 12C was near perfect for viewing the trees, which are near their peak autumn colors. The fractal cats did not concern themselves with leaves however. They were more concerned with finding the warmest spot around for their afternoon nap. My day was average, and tomorrow will likely be average also, which means the FOTD will appear on schedule at about this same time. Until then, take care, and maybe Noah's arc is part of a fractal!
