But these overlapping fractals are ; natural. They are not layers created artificially by the ; program. And BTW, it *is* possible for Fractint to create ; fractals consisting of two layers, though I have never used ; this feature. ; ; The image was created by adding (1/Z) to half as much Z^(1.3), ; then adding C. I gave the image no name and no rating. I could ; find nothing in it worth a name or a rating. The render time of ; 1-1/4 hours on my ancient fractal machine will be reduced to ; well under one hour on the newer units, but this is still quite ; slow for such an unimpressive image, so to make things more ; convenient, I have sent the finished image on ahead to Paul at ; the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where it is available for instant viewing. ; ; Cloudy chilly weather in the morning and light wet snow in the ; afternoon kept the fractal cats indoors all day Saturday. The ; snow grew heavier as night fell, so I doubt they will have much ; quality outdoor time for several days. My day was kept quite ; busy with odds and ends. If all goes well, the next FOTD will ; appear in all its unglory in 24 hours. Until that unglorious ; moment arrives, take care, and look for light. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FOTD_for_12-02-06 { ; time=1:14:18.63--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+0.88591873573364850/-0.056354097741100\ 40/511.7917/1/-142.5/-1.0555584184501754e-012 params=1/-1/0.5/1.3/0/0 float=y maxiter=16000 inside=0 logmap=188 symmetry=none periodicity=10 colors=000UK0000<7>000<4>000zz0<4>zz0zz0zz0000z00\ <10>z00<4>z00zz0<4>zz0zz0000<82>000<4>00000z<32>0\ 0z<4>00z<14>0Uz<3>0az1cz2ez3gz4iz<3>BqzDszFuzHwzJ\ yz<15>nzzpzzrzz<3>zzzwzzxzzyzz<22>zzz } 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========================================= ; ;
