Ignoring the ; broadened East Valley, today's image is located in a curiously ; out-of-place bit of fractal stuff on the southeast shore of the ; main bay of its parent. ; ; I named the image "Fuzzy Caterpillars". Indeed, the four vavy ; arms extending from the central midget do have a certain cater- ; pillar feel about them. I rated the image at a 6. It's quite a ; colorful fractal scene, but I could find nothing out of the ; ordinary in it that might raise the rating to a lofty 7 or 8. ; ; The render time of 11 minutes is slightly slow for such an ; image, but relief is at hand on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the caterpillar image is posted for quick viewing. ; ; Another near-perfect day went un-noticed by the fractal cats on ; Saturday. They were more interested in exploring the more re- ; mote nooks and crannies of New Fractal Central. Finding little ; of interest in the crannies, their attention eventually turned ; to thoughts of their evening treat. ; ; My day was all that could be expected. I see no reason why ; tomorrow should not be the same. The next FOTD will appear in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be upbeat. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Fuzzy_Caterpillars { ; time=0:11:12.45--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+3.93954433709998100/-3.057225040758365\ 00/752026.1/1/55/8.38073092895852412e-007 params=-0.1/2.5/-2.5/0.08/0/0 float=y maxiter=1950 inside=0 logmap=199 periodicity=10 colors=000LaaLa`Lb_McZMcYNdXNeWOeVOfUOfTPgSPhRQhQQ\ iPQiOSjNUjMWkLXkKZkJ`lIblIclHemGgmFimEjnDlnCnnCpoB\ qmAsl9ui8we7xa7vZ6tW6rU6qS6qO1oO6mRBlUGjXLi_QgbVfe\ _dhdckiamn`ns_otZouZnuYnvXmwXmwWlxVlyXlzVlyUkySjyR\ hyQgyOfxNdxMcxKbxJ`xH_wGZwFXwDWwCVwAVyBUwBTuBSsCRq\ CQpCPnDOlDNjDMiELgEKeEJcEIbFH`FGZFFXGEVGDUGCSHBQHA\ OH9NI8LI7JI6HK3CI5GG7KE9NCBRADU8FY6H`4Jd3Kg6Md9NaB\ OZEPWHQTJSQMTNPUKRVHUWEQY6WXBaXFgXKmXOsXTxZVyXXyWY\ yUZyT_yRayQbzOczNdzLfzKgzIhzHizGjwIhtKfqLdnMbkN`hO\ ZePXcQVaRT`SRaTPbUNbVLcWJdXIeYIeZIf_Jg`Jg`JecHceFb\ gE`iCZkBYm9Wo7zq6zs4zu3zw1zy0zv2zt3zq4zo5mm6Sj7Sh8\ TfAUcBUaCV_DVXEWVFWTGXQHYOJYMKZJLZHM_FN_CO`APb5S`8\ Q_BOZDMXGKWIIVLGUNFSQDRTBQV9OY7Q_5Sa3Uc1We2Yg2_i2a\ k3cm3cn3co4cp4cq4er5gs5iu5kv6mw6px6ry7tz7vz6wz7zz8\ zz9zzAzzBzzBzzCzzDzzEzzFzzGzzGzzHzzIzzJzzKzzKzzLzz\ Mzzizzhzzgzzfzzezzdzzczzb } 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========================================= ; ;
