; FOTD -- November 20, 2005 (Rating 5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image came about when I combined various portions of 
; (1/Z) and Z^(-2), then added (1/C).  The parent fractal consists 
; of three oversized lobes, with today's scene located rather deep 
; in the valley between the north and east lobes.  There appears 
; to be considerably more interesting stuff in this particulad 
; parent fractal.  If time were not limited, I might spend an 
; eternity or two exploring it.
; 
; The effect of spheres is quite strong, and is the reason I named 
; the image "Spheres".  The rating of a 5 means I consider the 
; image to be merely adequate.  The render time of 29 minutes is 
; on the slow side, but may be eliminated by downloading the 
; completed GIF image from the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; The effect of the bright sun was lessened by the chill in the 
; air here at Fractal Central on Saturday.  The fractal cats 
; checked the outdoors several times, but never remained out 
; longer than 20 minutes.  My day was near average, as are most 
; of my days.  The next FOTD will appear in 2 hours.  Until then, 
; take care, and always look up.
