This parent fractal is not unusually prom- ; ising -- an oversized egg-shaped open oval with pointed ends and ; a string of circles mounted on stems, stretching down the mid- ; dle. There is almost none of the semi-chaos that promises good ; fractal hunting. But hope springs eternal in the breast of ; every devoted fractalist, and those who search deeply enough ; will find this parent fractal loaded with goodies. ; ; All right, I admit that I did render today's image with the ; inside set to 'fmod' and the outside set to 'summ', but a little ; something extra really was needed to bring the image to life. ; When rendered in my normal manner, with the inside=0 and the ; outside=iter, the resulting piles of flat splotches arehardly ; worth FOTD status. ; ; Though I rated today's image at a 5, I gave it no name. After ; studying it for 5 minutes, I saw nothing that reminds me of any- ; thing familiar. ; ; The 9-1/4 minutes required to run the included parameter file ; may be saved by going to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and viewing the image there. ; ; Unexpectedly warm weather arrived here at Fractal Central on ; Tuesday, when the temperature reached a high of 82F 28C. The ; plentiful sunshine and light winds made it feel more like mid- ; summer than early spring. Of course, the fractal cats did not ; concern themselves with the outside conditions. As long as it ; is reasonably comfortable inside, they do not complain about ; the weather. ; ; My day was again a little busier than I would have liked, but ; things are definitely slowing down. The slow-down should lead ; to better fractals, the next of which will appear in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and a fractal visionary, like all vision- ; aries, is one who sees things that others miss. Whether those ; things are 'real' or 'all in the mind' is irrelevant. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FOTD_for_Mar_28_07 { ; time=0:09:14.20--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotMix4 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+0.43368457862471000/+0.088489781136390\ 72/8.05e+009/1.0765/-77.500421200440698/0.00182150\ 218449583789 params=1/-2/6/-1/0/0 float=y maxiter=1600 inside=fmod proximity=0.1 outside=summ periodicity=10 colors=000zzSzwXyvWxuUwtRvsNuqJtoFsmDrkCohBleAibAf\ _9eX8cU8aR7_O6XL5UH5RE4OB3L83J56H49F6CD7FB9I9AL7BO\ 6DR5EU6GX6H_7Ib7Ke6Lh6Nk6On6PqBVpG_oLdnQimRblSXkTQ\ jUKiVDhW7gW1f7xV9uXArYBpzCmzEkzFhzGfzHczIazKZzLXzM\ UzNSzPPzQNzRKzSIzTFzVDzWAzX8zY5zZ3z_5z_7z_9z`Bz`Cz\ `EzaGzaIzaKzbLzbNzbPzcRzcTzcUzdWzdYzd_zd`zcZzcXzcV\ zcTzcSzcQzbOzbMzbLzbJzbHzbFcaDfaChaAja8ma6oa5qd6rf\ 6rh6rj6rl6ro7sq7ss7su7sw7sy7sxJfwUU`NKEGBKCJP9RV6Y\ _3ed0le3if5gf8egAchCahFZiHXjKVjMTkORlROlTMmWKnYIn_\ GoZKpZOqZSrYWsY_tYboWbkUbgTbcRb_PbWObSMbOLbKJbGHbC\ Gb8Eb4Db5G`5I_6LZ6NY7QW7SV8VU8XT9ZR9aQAcPAfOBhMBkL\ CmKCoJWpOopSpnTpmUplVqkVqjWqiXqhXrfYreZrdZrc_sb`sa\ `s`atZbtYbtXctWduVduUeuTfuSfC`XEaZFb_Gc`IcaJdcKedL\ feNffOggPhiQijSikTjlUknVloXlpYmqZnr_otaoubpvcqwgwy\ dqxalw_gwXbvVYvSTuQOuNJtLEtKQgKaWJmJJy7Pp5Ug4_Z3dR\ 2`UBXWKTYTP_apWSoZQo`PnbO } 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========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
