The name indicates ; that it is a scene located very deep in East Valley of the ; Mandelbrot set. The center real coordinate of 0.250007... ; indicates exactly how deep in East Valley the scene lies. The ; imaginary value of -0.0000000296... shows the narrowness of the ; valley at the real value of 0.250007. ; ; The maxiter of 1,300,000 might be a bit excessive, but it ; indicates the difficulty of exploration in this area of the ; M-set, where most of the elements in the image have a maxiter of ; well over 10,000. The magnitude of 8*10^12 emphasizes the ; difficulty of the area. The mathtolerance entry in the ; parameter file is needed to assure that the image renders at the ; correct magnitude and does not slip into arbitrary precision ; math, which would cause the image to take at least 72 hours to ; finish. ; ; The most striking thing about the image is the 'pinched-off' ; nature of the elements. This 'pinched-off' effect is common in ; the deeper parts of valleys. The entire scene is located in the ; shallow part of an 'elephant-trunk' spiral, the location being ; reflected in the curving elements surrounding the midget. ; ; I rated the image at a 6, since I feel it is a bit above average ; in fractal worth. When adjusted for the render time of 26-3/4 ; minutes, the overall value registers a 22. That value may be ; increased by downloading the completed image from the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; A warm showery day Friday led to a dry cloudy and cooler day ; Saturday. The cats went no farther than the covered porch on ; Friday, but enjoyed several pleasant hours in the holly thicket ; on Saturday. Rain is threatening again today, so it remains to ; be seen how the cats will make out. As for me, I plan on taking ; it as easy as possible, ignoring the overdue work until tomor- ; row. Until the next FOTD appears, take care, and meditate for ; fractal serenity. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Deep_in_the_East { ; time=0:26:49.37--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=+0.25000708379627680/-0.000000029635013\ 58/7.976154e+012/1/15.01703628653671/-0.0446438823\ 576447985 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=1300000 bailout=9 inside=0 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=/1 colors=000zuuwrruposmlpkjniglfdidaga_e_XcYU`VRZTPX\ QMUOJSMGQJENHBLE8JC5HA3I95I97I88I8AJ7CJ7DJ6FJ6HK5I\ K5KK5LK4NK4PL3QL3SL2UL2VM1XM1ZM0_M0aM0bQ4aU8aYCa`G\ adKahOakSaoWas_avbar`Yo_VkZShYPdWLaVIYUFVTCSS9RRCQ\ QFPPIOOLNNOMMQLLTKKWJJZIIaHHdGHfHGcIFaIE_JDYKDVKCT\ LBRMAPMANNDONFPOIQOKRPNSPPTQSUQUVQXWRZXRaYScZSf_Th\ `TkaUnbUpcUmdWkbXg`ZbZ_YXaUVbRTdFRe9Pf4Nd6Ob7Pa8P_\ AQYBQXCRVDSTFSSGTQHTOIUNKVLLVJMWINWHOUHOTGOSGOQFPP\ FPOEPNEPLDQKDQJCQHCQGBRFBREARCARB9SA9S88S78S68S5AU\ ABWECYJE_NFaRGcWHe_JgcKihLklMlpNkpOjoPioRhoSgoTfnU\ enVdnXcnYbmZam_`m`_maZm`ak`dj_gh_ig_jfVh`RdWM`RIXM\ DSG9OB4K60G11J41M61P81SB1VD1YF1`H2bK2eM2hO2kQ2nT2q\ V2tX2vZ7uWCtUGtSLsPQrNUrLZqIcpGgpEhnFhlGijHiiIjgJj\ eKkdLkbMl`Nl_NmYOmWPnVQnTRoRSoPTpOUpMVqKWqJWrHXrFY\ sEZsC_tA`t9au7bu5cu4cs6cr7cp8coAcmBclCckEciFchGcfH\ ceJcdKcbLcaNc_OcZPcYQczww } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
