Today's image is found on the southwest shoreline of ; the main bay, which is on the west side of the parent fractal. ; ; The resemblance to a tree in winter, with the branches covered ; in ice, is so striking that no other name but "Bare Tree" would ; be satisfactory. All in all, the image is worth a rating of a ; lofty 8, at least in my opinion. ; ; One of the best features of the image is its super speed. The ; calculation finishes in a matter of 34 seconds even on my slow ; old 200mhz machine. And the image is or soon will be posted on ; the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Friday began with light rain here at Fractal Central. By 9am ; the rain ended, leading to a mostly cloudy day with a tempera- ; ture of 46F 8C. For some reason the fractal cats seemed annoyed ; most of the day, and spent a good part of the time sulking. ; Their good spirits didn't return until they had finished their ; evening treats. ; ; My day was totally uneventful. What more could one ask for? ; The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, ; and don't get haunted by the spirit of a lost fractal. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Bare_Tree { ; time=0:00:34.00--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=recip center-mag=-2.88099/-0.760467/31.83/1/65/3.435e-013 params=5/-1.4/0.5/-4.5/0/0 float=y maxiter=128 colors=000_ez0EP0EP0EP0EP0EP0EP0000EP0000CP0000CP1\ 004CP911CCSECSHCSKCSP9SS9SU9SYCS_CSbESgJSjMSmMSpPS\ rPSuRSxWUxXUz_YzaYzdYzg_zj_zm_zpbzrbzuezuezuezugzu\ gzxgzzjzzjzzjzzmzzmzzpzzpzzpzzrzzrzzrzzuzzuzzuYz0_\ z1_z1bz1bz4ez4ez4gz6gz6jz6jz9mz9mz9pzCpzCpzCrzErzE\ uzEuzHxxHxuHzrKzpKzmKzjMzgMzeMzbPz_PzYPzUSzSSzPSzM\ UzKUzHUzEYzCYz9Yz6_z4_z1_z0_z0bz0bz0bz0bz0bz0bu0br\ 0bm0bj0be0eb0eY0eU0eP0eM0eH0eE0e90e60e10e00g00g00g\ 00g00g00g00g00g00g00g00g00m00p10uE0xU0zg6zuEzzMzzK\ zzHzzHzzEzxEzuCzu9zr9zp6xp6xm4uj1uj1rg0re0pe0mb0m_\ 0j_0jY0gU0gU0eS0bP0bM0_M0_K0YH0YH0UE0SC0SC0P90P60M\ 60M40K10H10H00E00E00C00C00900900600600600600610610\ 4404404604904904C04C01E01M0EE01H01H01K01zzzzzzzzzz\ xzzuzzrxzpxzmuzjrzjpzgmzemzbjz_gzYezUbxS_uS_rPYpMU\ mKSjHPjEPgCMe9Kb9H_6EY4CU1CS09P06M04K010z00x00u00r\ 00p00m00j00e00b00_00Y00U0 periodicity=10 } 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========================================= ; ;
