; FOTD -- July 14, 2006 (No Rating)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; I recently wrote that all midgets in the Z^1.5+C Mandeloid look 
; the same.  After finding today's image, I am no longer certain 
; that this is true.  The pattern around the midget is fractured, 
; as would be expected, but the theme of converging spiral arms 
; clearly shows through the breaks and almost totally onliterates 
; the radiating discontinuities.
; 
; I gave the image no name or rating.  Names and ratings add 
; little to the impact of a fractal image.  If the image doesn't 
; have impact, a lot of fancy words and bloated ratings are not 
; going to create it.
; 
; The render time of over 19 minutes is true on my antique but 
; still working fractal-dedicated P200 machine.  All the more 
; modern units, if they run Fractint at all, will calculate 
; today's image in far less time.
; 
; The parameter file has been posted, along with the completed 
; image, to the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Near perfect weather here at New Fractal Central on Thursday 
; went unappreciated by the fractal cats, who spent the day 
; alternating between sleeping and getting into trouble.  Nico 
; somehow managed to knock an entire row of books from the shelf, 
; while Cassie watched with amusement.  My day was spent preparing 
; to do as little as possible for the next week or so.  (The best 
; way I know to spoil a vacation is to plan to have a lot of fun.) 
; The next FOTD will appear in about one week.  The exact date is 
; uncertain, but one thing is certain -- I shall return.  Until I 
; do, take care, and don't work too hard trying to relax.
