Without the bit of extra effort I put into the color ; palette, the fractal would be just another picture of a Minibrot ; rather deep on the sinuous filament of the period-11 sub-bud on ; the northeast shoreline of the large period-2 bud centered at ; -1 in the Mandelbrot set, where the Seahorse Valley characteris- ; tics are just starting to appear. ; ; I named the image "Helixes All Around" when I had the impression ; that the sixteen wavy lines radiating from the bluish pattern ; around the Midget are actually three-dimensional helixes. ; ; The calculation time of 4-3/4 minutes is surprisingly fast for ; an arbitrary precision image with a magnitude of over 10^20. ; But even this short wait may be bypassed by going to the FOTD ; web site at: ; ; ; ; and viewing the already-rendered image there. ; ; Thursday brought continuing clouds to Fractal Central, but we ; enjoyed a short interval of sun in the afternoon, which let the ; temperature rise to a pleasant 79F 26C. The fractal cats spent ; several hours watching the scene from their window, but I think ; they were more concerned with the pigeons cooing on the porch ; roof than with the weather. My day was pleasantly slow; hope- ; fully tomorrow will be the same. The next FOTD will most likely ; appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and make your peace ; with a renegade fractal. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Helixes_All_Around { ; time=0:04:43.69-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=mandel center-mag=-0.7797023197491\ 136919845708/0.1503396430159217625308027/\ 1.240172e+020/1/-140/0.00387885 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=1400 inside=0 logmap=290 periodicity=10 colors=000VT8XU7ZV6`W6bX5dY4fZ3h_2k`1na0qbGtcDwdAz\ eFzhKzjPznSzpUzrWzuYzw_zzazzczze9eq7co6am4_k3Yi1Vg\ 5Se4Pc4N`3LX3JU3HR2FN2CK1AG18D16A046023023000000Oj\ qHhoAfm8dj7bg7_d6Ya6VZ5TV5QS4OP3MM3JJ2HF2FC1E91260\ 13GDGzcEzcDzcCvcBrcAmZ9hU8cP7ZK6UF5PA4K53F12A01500\ _pzWizSezP`yLVrIQmELhAFc7AZ35UzLZzJWqIUgGRaFPYDMUC\ KRAHN9FJ7CF6AB47735312NE`KCXIBTG9PD8MB7I95E64B4272\ 13Q_DJR9DI6693y32u21q21m21i21e21a11Y11V11R10N10J00\ F00B00700300UzdMjUFVK7FAINFGKDEICDGABE99C88A668546\ 4342121812701601501401300200100EM07B0lX3Zcz`dybeyd\ fyegyg0xi0xj0xlkxn0wo0wqPwsUwtZwscrrhmqmhqhcphZohU\ miPhjKckFZlAUm5Pm8KmBFmDAmG5mI0mJ0nJ0oJ0pKUqKirKzr\ LzsLzsLztHztEzuAzu7zv8zv8zw8zw8zx8zxAzyAzyAzzAzzAz\ zAzzAzzAzzAzzAzzAzzFzzKzzPzzUzzZzzczzhzzmzzrzzvzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
