FOTD -- October 29, 2007   (Rating 8)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's visit to fractal land takes us to the country created when 5 negative parts of Z^(-2) are mixed with 1 negative part of Z^(-10) and (1/C) is added.   This parent fractal consists of 3 nearly circular large bays, with many smaller more irregular bays attached.   Today's scene is located on the edge of a blunt valley in the westernmost irregular bay.

I named the image "Sparkling Splendor".   The minibrot at the center appears to be sparkling alone in a world of lurking dark-blue shapes.   The entire scene impresses me as being well above FOTD average, which accounts for the rating of an exceptional 8.

The included parameter file takes 3-1/2 minutes to finish on the fast machine and 17 minutes on the slow unit.   It can be viewed much faster by going to the FOTD web site at:
http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html
and checking it there.

Brisk autumn conditions arrived here at Fractal Central on Sunday, with north winds, sullen-looking clouds, and a temperature of 50F 10C.   The fractal cats spent most of the day snuggled amidst the stuffed animals in the spare room, while I spent the day trying to do as little as possible.

The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.   Until then, take care, and if matter is an image created in the mind by a pattern of frozen energy, then energy is the realest reality, mind is less real, and matter is the least real.   Anyway, regardless of the real reality, I don't mind if it doesn't matter.
