Fractal of the Day
by Jim Muth
|
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I found today's image on a side filament of the main spike of the December parent fractal. Of course, it's questionable whether a feature so small that a microscope is needed to make it visible can actually be considered anything main. I named the image "No Ambiguity Here". Your guess is as good as mine as to the meaning of the name. I rated the image at a 7. I almost gave myself an extra half point for the coloring, but then I decided I didn't like the off-green, which gives the whole picture a rather unpleasant feeling. I rather enjoy the celestial blue areas behind the earthy green however, so I finally relented and rewarded myself a full quarter point for the coloring. The calculation time of a brisk 32 seconds means near instant satisfaction for all those who run the included parameter file. Those who do not run parameter files may still enjoy the image by surfing to the FOTD web site at: Thursday turned out notably un-notable here at Fractal Central, with partly cloudy skies, a temperature of 41F 5C and melting ice. The fractal cats spent the day in meditation; I spent the day in work. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and avoid redundancy.
