; FOTD -- May 07, 2005 (Rating 7)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's annoyingly slow image is a scene deep in the half-moon 
; that appeared in the 'Lunahalf' image 2 days ago.  In the 
; original image, the detail inside the circle became obscured 
; when the logmap spread out the iteration bands there.  In 
; today's image, the logmap has been turned off and the rendering 
; done with the outside set to 'tdis'.
; 
; The result is a rather gloomy scene filled with ferns and 
; highlighted by colorful circles and comets.  The 'comets' and 
; 'circles' are unusual enough to give the image a rating of a 7.
; 
; The name "Comets and Circles" describes the colorful objects 
; scattered through the image.  The render time of one hour and 40 
; minutes is very slow.  I strongly recommend downloading the 
; already-rendered image from the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; The sky stayed cloudy all day here at Fractal Central on Friday, 
; but the rain stayed east of us, and even though the temperature 
; reached only 54F 12C, the cats managed a reasonably good 2 hours 
; in the holly thicket.  They did ask for a bit of tuna in the 
; evening however.  Today is starting partly cloudy.  The cats' 
; day should be better.  The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  
; Until then, take care, and who is right?
