At this ; level the Mandeloid resembles a pin-headed punching bag surroun- ; ded by acres of chaos. I chose the Julia set of an inside point ; near the bud side of the most obvious valley. ; ; Much of the image consists of an inside area brought to life by ; the 'bof61' inside fill. I gave the entire scene a heavenly ; blue tint that in my opinion raises its rating from a 5 to a 6. ; Some areas of the image appear to hold some interesting scenes, ; but I have no time to check these at the present time. There ; are far too many other fractals waiting. ; ; The name "Julia Variation-3" indicates that today's image is the ; third in the series of JuliaBC images. I am sure quite a few ; more are to come. With a render time of just under 15 minutes, ; today's image borders on the slow side. But the rendering may ; be avoided by downloading the finished image from the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; I am thinking of writing four more versions of the branch cut ; formula, one for each of the four remaining odd planes of the ; Julibrot. Most likely I will find little there that is more ; impressive than the scenes in the Mandelbrot and Julia sets, but ; it will be interesting to see what I can find. ; ; A steady cold rain fell all day Tuesday here at Fractal Central, ; with a raw wind and temperature of 43F 6C making things even ; worse. The dynamic duo kept their dis-satisfaction no secret. ; Luckily, I had stocked up on chunk light tuna ahead of time, and ; was prepared for the sulkiness. Today is starting breezy and ; chilly, but the clouds have cleared, promising a better day. ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and be at peace with all that is. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Julia_Variation-3 { ; time=0:14:51.44--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=JuliaBC passes=1 center-mag=-0.295117/\ 0.224777/0.634058/1/-42.5/-3.77822773067748585e-014 params=1.15/0/10/0/-0.61125/0.69209/0/0 float=y maxiter=2600 inside=bof61 periodicity=10 colors=000D92D94D96D98D9AD9GD9ID9KD9MD9OD9QD9SD9UD\ 9WD9YD9_DAaDBcDCeDDgDEiDFkDGlDHmDInDJoDKpDLqFMrHNs\ KOtKPuKQvKRwKSxNTyNUzNVzNWzNXzNYzNZzN_zN`zNazNbzNd\ zNfzNhzNjzNlzNnzNpzNrzNtzNvzNxzNzzNzzNzzNzzNzzNzzN\ zzNzzNzzNzzXzzZzz`zzbzzdzzfzzjzzmzznzzqzztzzwxzzuz\ wsztrzqqzopzlozinzfmzcmz`mzYmzVmzSmzPmzMmzKmzKmzKn\ zKozKpxKqvKrtKsqHtoDulDviDwgDxdDyaDz_DzXDzXDzqFzzS\ zzdzzizznzztzzyuzzpzzjzzezz`zzZzzWzzWzzWzzTzzTzzRz\ zTzzWzzZzzZzz`zzczzcxzevzhqzhozjlzmizmgzpazr_zrVzu\ QzxCzx0zz0zz0zzCzzQzzazzozzzzzzzxzzuzzuzzrzzrzzpzz\ mzzmzzjzyjzthznhziezdez_czV`zP`zKZzFZzDWzDWzDTzDOz\ DTzDZzDczDhzFmzKrzPxzVzz_zzdzzizxnzvtzqvzoyzoHzzDz\ zDzzDzzDzzDzzDzzHuzKrzNpzv9it9lq9lq9ln9ln9ll9ll9li\ 9li9lg9og9od9od9ob9ob9o_9o_9oX9oX9oV9qV9qSBtSDtPJv\ POvPRxNWxN`zKczKhzHmzHpzHuzFzzFzzDzzDzzDzzDzzDzzDz\ zDzzDzzDzzDzzDeqD`lFZiHTd } frm:JuliaBC { ; Formula by Andrew Coppin e=p1, p=real(p2)+PI, q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)), r=real(p2)-q, C=p3, Z=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|< p4+100 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
