Well, I'm not fully convinced that my ; delight in viewing the image is indescribable, but the image is ; at least far enough above average to earn it a 6, so that's how ; I rated it. The name "Totally Ravishing" is an intentional ; exaggeration. ; ; The image is an evaporated one, with the inside activity made ; visible by the bof61 inside fill. The parent fractal in its ; un-evaporated form appears as a multi-bayed Mandeloid, its ; filaments leading to terminating rings. Today's scene is ; located in a cut-off feature close to a zig-zagging filament ; that runs down the center of a prominent valley. ; ; Although the resulting image was called 'totally ravishing', to ; me it appears to lack something. The colors, though brilliant, ; are not pure. A certain muddiness spoils things. And the ; elements have too many disquieting sharp points. The rating of ; 6 appears justified. ; ; The 5-minute render time is brief enough, but those with more ; pressing things to finish may save a few minutes by downloading ; the finished image from: ; ; ; ; or from: ; ; ; ; The rain held off until after 3pm Monday here at Fractal ; Central, giving the cat duo time enough in the yard to make them ; happy before things got wet. The temperature of 82F 28C was no ; problem. ; ; Today is starting cool and sunny -- just the conditions to keep ; the duo happy. And the work shelf is piled just high enough to ; keep me busy until 2pm or so -- the conditions that keep me ; happy. It actually looks like a good day might be coming. ; Another FOTD is also coming, and it will appear in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and be of good cheer. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE================================ Totally_Ravishing { ; time=0:05:29.44--SF5 on a p200 reset=2002 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+1.26428153306016700/+1.055502538839018\ 00/254505.2/1/70/8.99066862625197416e-010 params=7/-1.3/0.7/-13/0/1e+100 float=y maxiter=500 inside=bof61 outside=tdis periodicity=10 colors=000o`b6um0zo0zqzzzzsuz`XzVbxPgmLk`GqPCuE6z2\ 2zA0zH0zP0zX0zd0zk0zs0zz0zgCzRbz8zz0zz0zm0oP0X00G0\ 08CE0iL0`T0T`0Je0Cm02u00z00q00gC6`PER`NHmXAxd0zm0z\ u6zvHzvVzvezxszxzzxovz`mzNdz8Tz0Jz0A_08z06g06e04V2\ 4L8EHENGJXEPdCVmA`v8ez6VxNJsdAmu0gz0dz0so0zC0z00x0\ 0k40JH00X00i00e4Ed8VbGXVLXNTZGZZAb`8e`6gb6kb4od2qd\ 2ue0ve0zd0z`0zZ0zX0z`0zd0zg0zk0vGGV8bXAbXCdZEdZEe`\ GebHgbJgdLgdLieNigPkgRkiRmiTmkVokXomZooZqo`qqbsqds\ qdssduueuuguvivvkvxkxxmxzozzqzzqzzszzuzzvzzxzzxzzz\ zzzzzzzz82zC6zEAzHCzJGzNJzPLzRPzVTzXVz`Zzb`zddzggz\ iizmmzoqzqszuvzvzzzzzzzzZ0z`2z`4zb6zb8zdAzdCzdEzeG\ zeGzgHzgJzgLziNziPzkRzkTzkTzmVzmXzoZzo`zobzqdzqezs\ gzsgzsizukzumzvozvqzvszxuzxuzzvzzxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzG\ 0zH2zJ4zL6zN8zPAzRCzTEzVGzVHzXJzZLz`NzbPzdRzeTzgVz\ iXziZzk`zmbzodzqezsgzuizvkzxmzxozzqzzszzuzzvzzxzzz\ zzzzG00L00R46VAE`HJdNRiTX } frm:MandelbrotMix4 {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(-a*b*g*h)^j, k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE================================== ;
