Fractal of the Day

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: This is unheard of -- two 10-rated FOTD fractal images in a row, and once again from the prolific parent fractal that has been the source of the FOTD images for over a week. Today's image comes from the tip of a half cut-off ring on the northeast shore of the largest bay of the parent fractal. It is another half-evaporated image, with the inside part brought to life by the inside=atan option. For a reason known only to the powers that be, this option creates the blatantly obvious violet blue ring that fills most of the frame. I named today's FOTD "A Hairy Situation". One glance at the image will reveal the reason for the name. Then I rated it at a top-of-the-scale 10. In my opinion, it's as good as yesterday's half-and-half image, which also rated a 10. The calculation time of 33 seconds or 3 minutes is brief enough to hardly be noticed. And even the minor effort of setting up and running the parameter file may be avoided by going to the FOTD web site, where the finished image is posted for viewing. The FOTD web site may be accessed at: The temperature was a reasonable 75F 24C here at Fractal Central on Tuesday, but off-and-on rain kept a damper on things. I was busy enough with commercial work to have no time to complain. The fractal cats did complain however. They complained about the lateness of their daily treat. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be kind to your iterated fractals. Jim Muth jamth@mindspring.com jimmuth@aol.com |
