Fractal of the Day

FOTD -- January 20, 2009 (No Rating) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image earns no rating. After studying it for several minutes, I decided it is simply too much of the same thing to be worth a rating. But it's still an 'interesting' image. This is what I say about something when I don't want to admit that I see little of worth in it. The name "Seven Times Seven" refers to the multiple layers of 7-part symmetry surrounding the minibrot at the center. The parent fractal is a Mandelbrot set that has started to come apart at the seams. Today's image is located in the western part of the large minibrot on the main spike of the parent fractal. This large minibrot is coming apart even faster than its parent. The calculation time of 1-1/2 minutes is mercifully brief. The virtual trip to the FOTD web site at:to view the finished image is just as brief, and even more fun. A balmy temperature of 26F -4C, with just enough sun to warm the shelf by the window, kept the fractal cats happy here at Fractal Central on Monday. Less work than expected kept me reasonably happy, but FL is unhappy because the drain of the kitchen sink is still frozen. To avoid tearing out a brick wall however, it looks like the pipe will stay frozen until it melts naturally. Until a thaw, the laundry tub in the next room will have to do. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. If all goes well, it will be an image to warm the heart, if not, it will still be cool. Take care, and walk in the sun.
