Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth

|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's rather unusual image is a partially evaporated scene in the fractal that results when 5 parts of Z^(-1.4) are combined with 0.5 part of Z^(-4,5) and (1/C) is added. This parent fractal is a roughly circular thing filled with scattered fractal debris. Today's image is located near the end of a twisting strand of disconnected debris on the east side of the circular parent. The bailout radius of 20100 assures that the parent fractal is partially evaporated. The remaining unevaporated 'outside' stuff was colored with the 'tdis' option, which creates the effect of strings of beads. The 'inside' parts were colored with the 'bof61' option, which supplies the solid, unbroken background. A midget does lie at the center of today's image. It is virtually impossible to distinguish amid all the other fractal goodies however. I did not get around to naming the image, though I did rate it at a hasty 7. The render time of under 3-1/2 minutes can probably be bettered by going to the FOTD web site at: Occasional light rain and only slightly milder temperatures prevailed here at Fractal Central on Monday. The high temperature of 52F 11C actually came after nightfall, just around the time the fractal cats were enjoying their evening treats. My day was busier than expected, making today's fractal all the more unusual. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be at peace with the universe of fractals.
