Fractal of the Day

FOTD -- February 02, 2009 (Rating 2)
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
All the 'reality' stuff on the Fractint list lately might indicate that the Philofractal list may need to be brought to life again.
I'm not going to say how I spent the day Sunday, but if I did, it would be no surprise. Due to a total lack of effort, today's image is hardly worth being called a fractal. I rated it at a 2 out of the kindness of my heart.
And to make matters even worse, the image takes near 13 minutes to calculate. But it's still an image, and to see what kind of fractal I found with one eye on the TV, run the parameter file and indulge yourself in masochistic disappointment.
The name "Squarely Chaotic" means little or nothing. The 13 minutes required to run the parameter file may be avoided by visiting the FOTD web site and viewing the finished image there. The web site may be accessed at:
Sunday turned out to be an unexpected gift here at Fractal Central, as total sun and a temperature of 50F 10C combined to make it seem almost like spring, despite the snow still covering the ground. The fractal cats agreed. They spent the entire afternoon soaking up the sunlight that blazed in through their favorite window.
My day was occupied with other things. The next FOTD, a better one for sure, will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if reality is what exists when no one is looking, how will we ever know what reality is without looking at it and thereby destroying it?
