At this profound depth, the formula creates a Mandeloid ; with its west end facing northeast and the east half of its main ; bay cut off. Today's scene is located far out on a prominent ; filament extending out NE from the large period-2 main bud. ; ; Since I spent most of the day enjoying the weather and doing ; little else, I could not name or rate today's image. But it is ; still a rather pleasant one to view, as long as one does not ; spend too much time thinking about it. ; ; The render time of 6-3/4 minutes is true on my ancient P133, a ; machine so old it would be best studied by an archaeologist. A ; much more efficient way of viewing the image is to visit the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where it is posted for instant if not hedonistic enjoyment. ; ; It was a beautiful spring day here at Old Fractal Central, from ; where the FOTD was posted for 9 years and where the old fractal ; cats, Thomas and Tippy, are still thriving. Clear blue skies, ; gentle breezes and a temperature of 82F 28C made things near ; perfect. I will be here until this Friday, while my sister, who ; moved here when I left, is visiting friends in Wisconsin. The ; old fractal cats spent the morning wondering why they see so ; little of me nowadays. Then they went out to the holly thicket, ; where they lurked all afternoon. They fully appreciated their ; evening treat of tuna. ; ; I will be pretty much unoccupied this week here at old FC, while ; Fractal Lady tends to business back at New FC This will give me ; lots of time to do nothing but find fractals, but I just might ; waste a good part of that spare time doing nothing. The next ; FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and sing a ; song of fractals. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FOTD_for_May-01_07 { ; time=0:06:45.29--SF5 on a P133 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC2 passes=1 center-mag=+1.35766777822103800/+1.460013324630978\ 00/3.206177e+010/1/120/-8.14812788009558475e-005 params=1.4142/0/-77/0 float=y maxiter=6000 inside=0 logmap=113 periodicity=10 colors=000zd0zf0xf0ug0og0ji0gi0PK003fz8ZqBQKEJPJBQ\ P3HO09M07H330G08U02f09a0GX0MU0SP0ZK0dHmz0gu0oZExCW\ z0jz7lzKnzZnzlozzqzzqzzqjxqXoqHgq2_q0Uq0Zo0bo0gn0l\ n0ql0vl5fZMSKaE8B500000838HCHSMSaWajbPinEiy3iz5jz7\ iz8gz9gzBfzCdzEdzJWuNMnSEgX5aa0Xd0bg0gj0ll0qg0ud5v\ aCyZJzUPzQXzNbzKiz2NZ020PzE00W72_PNdfigQsaCzW0zP0z\ J0zK0zM0zN2zP7zQ9zQEvKJoGNiBSd7XZ2aS0fM0jH0nN0qU3u\ _9xfHzlNzsWzyauzfiziZzlMzqBzu0zx3xo5ni8bb9UXCJQE9K\ G0EP7BXC8dH5SQ7GZ73g80o80x80v70v7Bu7Ku7Us7ds7nq7xq\ 7B0v70q3Gl0Xg0nb0z_5zfGzjSzobzuozyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzvz\ zszznzzjzzfzzbzzWxsNuiGybNzXUzQ_zMflNbNP_0QX5Ua9Wd\ GZiK_lPaoWdu_fxdgzalyZoxXuvUxuSzsUooUflWXjWNgWEdX5\ bX0_X0ZQ0_M0_H7_BC_7J_2P_9UCGZ0G_0Gb0Gd0Gf0Gi0Gj0G\ l00szl5lo7ds8Zv9Sy9MzBGzC9zE3zE0zB0u82l55f27iBGjKN\ nUWobbffSXiHNl7g0qa0dW9UQNHKa7z00s70iH0ZS0Pb0zz0xz\ 0qz0jz0dz0Zx0Su0Mq0zb0zd0 } frm:MandelbrotBC2 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100, p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)), r=real(p2)-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
