In that tale I told of a small part ; of a second fractal showing through the main fractal, and I ; commented that the second fractal was not critical. In today's ; image we inspect the area where interesting parts of the main ; fractal and the second fractal, the ghost fractal, overlap. ; ; I have named the image "Son of the Fractal", since it is a ; sequel to the original fractal that appeared yesterday. I have ; used virtually the same color palette as was used in yesterday's ; image, making only a few insignificant changes in the area of ; the central midget. ; ; The image rates a 6, at least in my opinion. The pattern around ; the midget combines Mandel and Julia elements in an arrangement ; pleasing enough to be worth the slightly above average rating. ; ; The render time of 9 plus minutes is still fast enough to avoid ; boredom. And the finished image is available on the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; We are not yet finished with "The Fractal". Tomorrow's FOTD ; will feature still another venture into its depths. And after ; that . . . who knows . . . ; ; The celestial sun was in evidence here at Fractal Central on ; Wednesday, but the temperature barely reached freezing, which ; made things far too chilly for the sensitive ears and noses of ; the fractal cats. They were out only a few minutes before the ; chill got to them and they asked to come inside where it was ; warm. My day was notably average. The next FOTD will appear in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and a fractal a day keeps ; something away, but I'm not sure what. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Son_of_the_Fractal { ; time=0:09:23.37--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+1.14618502512720100/-0.705529663893672\ 30/1.453056e+009/1/-20/4.9495116441478082e-007 params=1/2/-0.4/-0.8/0/0 float=y maxiter=1600 inside=0 logmap=198 periodicity=10 colors=000G00K00O00S00W02_04c06i28mEApPCs`EvkGocIh\ WKaOMVGPO9QNARNASNAUNAXNA_NAbNAeP8hR6kT4mU2or9qkGr\ dNsYUtR`uWYv_WwdTxhRylPzqMzuKzyIziMzVPzWQzXRzYSzZT\ zZUzSTzMTzFQz9MzhKziKzjKzkKzlKzlCz`CzQCzECz3Cz6Ez8\ GzAIzCJzFLzHNzJPzLQzdIzxBziKzVTzHazNXzTSzYNzcIziLz\ nOztRzyUzqXzi_zaayVcxUewTgvSjuRmnQptPqrPoqPmpQkoRj\ nSimTilUkkVmjWoiXqhYsgPufHwe9ycFzaLz_QyXMxUIwRFuPB\ sQ8qRHoPQmOYmNHmdImYJmRQmWXm`cmejnj`oeRp`HqXcrVgsR\ ktNouJpvHqwFrxDsyCvzBxzBzzBzzHzzMzzRzzSzzSzzxzzizz\ Vzz4zzAzzszzIzzgzz`zzUzzNzzmzzwzzlzzaQzR`zATzDHzQK\ zLQzHPzGOzGNzGmzXfzS_zOTzKazrYzhUzZQzPez6`z9WzBRzE\ JzHKzKLzPHzUJzZKzcLzhlzmZzrPzvXzzrzzizzazzUzzXzzRz\ zPzzNzzZzz_zzczzgzzkzzozzszzwzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } 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========================================= ; ;
