; FOTD -- July 18, 2002 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is part of a fractal that takes the parent fractal 
; of the most recent FOTD, makes a small change in the portions of 
; Z, and adds 1/C instead of C.  These changes create a grossly 
; bloated fractal which has a totally new overall shape but 
; retains the inner detail of the original.
; 
; The scene of today's image is in a totally cut-off feature near 
; a cubic-shaped bud of the parent fractal.  I have no idea why a 
; quadratic midget should be located near a cubic bud.
; 
; I named the image "Writhing Minibrot" because of eight the 
; twisting arms.  An outzoom will reveal four arms which are even 
; more twisted, but at this scale the central midget is invisible.
; 
; Considering the vivid coloring, the rating of 6 is perhaps a bit 
; conservative.  But with its routine appearance, I really could 
; not give the image a rating of 7.
; 
; The render time of the parameter file is under 6 minutes.  This 
; is reasonably fast, but still slow enough to make a download of 
; the completed GIF image file worth the slight effort.
; 
; The download can be found at:

; 
; and at:
; 
;           <http://sdboyd.dyndns.org/~sdboyd/fotd/index.html>
; 
; The fractal weather Wednesday was very hot, with a temperature 
; of 98F 37C that kept the dynamic fractal cats indoors.  Today is 
; just as hot, and also more humid.  The cats will likely spend 
; another day indoors.
; 
; I'll spend most of the day indoors also, getting caught up in 
; some unexpected work that came in.  Until next time, which will 
; be on July 20, take care, and what is more real, a quark or a 
; lark.
