Fractal of the Day

FOTD -- February 10, 2009   (Rating 5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's fractal is a surprisingly varied scene in a Z100+C Julia set.   The Mandelbrot set of this formula is basically a circle of radius-one centered at the origin, with 99 tiny bays around its perimeter.   The Mandelbrot point of today's Julia image is at an angle of 45 degrees from the origin, at a distance of a tiny bit more than 1, which puts it in the narrow strip of action along the edge of the circle.

As is the case with many Julia fractals, a bit of tweaking will show that the image is extremely sensitive to the slightest change in the parameters.

The name "High-Order Chaos" is a brief description of the image.   The rating of a 5 means that I had no chance to work up a better color palette.   The colors in the image are adequate, but could be far better.

The calculation time of 4-1/3 minutes borders on slowness, but the threat of impatience may be avoided by viewing the image in finished form on the FOTD web site at:
Warm sun and a temperature of 48F 9C kept the fractal cats happy here at Fractal Central on Monday, while the big job kept me busy.   The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.   Until then, take care, and fractals are not sold in stores, BUT WAIT! they are available for free all around you.
