As ; today's image shows, they most certainly do. ; ; Today's image skices the Julibrot in the Oblate direction, which ; is determined by the imag(c) and real(z) axes. In this direc- ; tion, the scene remains pretty much intact. The herringbones ; remain where they should be, while the tiny hole still lies near ; the center. The slices in other odd orientations are far less ; kind to the scene however, and distort things almost beyond ; recognition. I will show some of these other slices in upcoming ; images. ; ; I named today's image "Oblate Herringbone". The name is little ; more than a description of the scene. Considering the image a ; bit below the two previous herringbone images, I rated it at a 7. ; ; The render time of just under 11 minuted may be avoided by ; viewing the finished image from on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Increasing clouds and warmer temperatures here at New Fractal ; Central on Monday went un-noticed by the fractal cats, who still ; can not figure out why the carpets in the hallway no longer slip ; so easily. The big excitement of the day came when Nicholas ; tried to dislodge Cassie from her favorite warm radiator cover. ; He was rewarded for his effort by a swift hit on the top of the ; head. Luckily, all had been settled by the time evening snack ; time arrived. ; ; My day remained slow. The big job that was originally due in ; this morning has been delayed until Wednesday at the earliest. ; Undoubtedly, it will still be needed on the original date. The ; next FOTD will shine forth in glory 24 hours from now. The ; glory will be in the eye of the beholder. Until then, take ; care, and where are all the scientific breakthroughs that were ; supposed to be brought about by the space shuttle program? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Oblate_Herringbone { ; time=0:10:51.53--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=multirot-XY-ZW-new function=ident/flip passes=b center-mag=+0.00000000035115616/+0.000000\ 00000068196/2.490884e+010/0.004515/-0.111270026331\ 318467/-89.827 params=0/90/2.0000001/0/-1.74994915\ 4546508/4.809332442e-007/-1.749949154546508/4.8093\ 32442e-007 float=y maxiter=2000 inside=255 logmap=750 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000mXbkZfi`jgbmedqdftbcqa`n_YkZVhXSeWPbUM`T\ JYRGVQDSOCPMAMK8JI6GG4DE2AC07A04800F0zFczPczZczYcz\ YJcXOWXTSXYOWbKWgGVlCVq8Vv5Uu6Tu7Su8Ru9QtAPtBOtCNt\ DMsELsFKsGJsHIrIHrJGrKFrLEkTDd_DZfCSmCMtFPuIRuLTuN\ VuQXuTZuV`uYbu`dubfuTcaJ`JAZ0NWG_TWlQkyOzvPysQypRx\ mSxjTxgUwdVwaVwZWvWXvTYuQZuN_uK`tHatFatoffjjXemOfl\ SgkWhk_n5Lo4Gp4Cq48o5Bm6Dl7Fj7Hh8Jg9LeANdAPaHTZNXW\ T`6Hl3HC7FBBEAED9IC8MB7PA6T95X84_74nF5lE7kE8jD9iCA\ gBCfADeAEd9Fb8Ha7I`6J_6KYATWEaVIjQEeLBaG8XB5TD9SEC\ SFFSHISILRJORLSRMVRNYQP`QQcQRfQSfPTePUeOVdOWdNXcMY\ cMZbL_bLcWOgQRkKToDWs7Zw1```tZZuXYuWWuUVvTTvRSvPQw\ _XnYZoWWnUUmSRlQPkONjPNge5XiN`oUYzcVzzSzzPzzMzzczz\ tzzszzrzzqzzqzzpqpopcopZnp`mobmoelngknikmkjmmimmiz\ zhhhheegcbg`ZfZWfXTfUQeSNePJdNGdKDcIAcG7cF9aEA_DCY\ CDXBEVAGT9HS8IQ7KO6LN5NL4OJ3PI2RG1SE1TD5WH8YKB_NPQ\ JbGFo7BsFGvMLtPPrRTpTWnV_ } frm:multirot-XY-ZW-new {; draws 6 planes and rotations ;when fn1-2=i,f, then p1 0,0=M, 0,90=O, 90,0=E, 90,90=J ;when fn1-2=f,i, then p1 0,0=M, 0,90=R, 90,0=P, 90,90=J a=real(p1)*.01745329251994, b=imag(p1)*.01745329251994, z=sin(b)*fn1(real(pixel))+sin(a)*fn2(imag(pixel))+p3, c=cos(b)*real(pixel)+cos(a)*flip(imag(pixel))+p4: z=z^(p2)+c, |z| <= 36 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
