The combination produced ; a hyperbola with the open end facing west. On the surface, the ; edges of this hyperbola appear smooth and featureless, but a ; closer examination reveals that the edges consist of the typical ; Mandelbrot buds and their radicals. ; ; Today's scene is located in a kind of elephant trunk in the ; narrow band of Mandel stuff on the northern side of the parent ; hyperbola. It is rather surprising that the midget in today's ; image has an East Valley appearance, since the area in which it ; lies bears no resemblance at all to a valley. ; ; When I saw the four flat disks that appear to stand out in front ; of the rest of the scene, I named the image "Ambiguous Blobs". ; And since I did put a bit of extra effort into the coloring, I ; decided to reward myself with an extra half-point rating. The ; rating of 7-1/2 equals a little more than only an average amount ; above the FOTD average. ; ; The calculation time of 3-1/2 minutes is within reason for the ; rational fractalist. Those who are not rationalists may view ; the finished image without effort by going to the FOTD web site ; at: ; ; ; ; Thursday, the day on which we honor all the saints, began with ; heavy clouds here at Fractal Central. But at noon the dark ; clouds quickly moved out, leading to a very pleasant autumn ; afternoon, with brilliant sun on the colorful trees and small ; fluffy clouds in the background, while the temperature reached ; 61F 16C. The fractal cats, not even being close to sainthood, ; found their share of mischief. ; ; For me, the day was busy enough to prevent boredom and still ; leave time for the day's FOTD. In all probability, tomorrow ; will be the same. Until next time, take care, and save the best ; for last. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Ambiguous_Blobs { ; time=0:03:37.06-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip center-mag=-2.031365658088821/+1.969163472099974/\ 1.90048e+009/1/142/-1.34e-006 params=1/1/1.5/-1/0/\ 0/0/0 float=y maxiter=7200 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=000oyEmxFkwFiuGgsGeqHcoHamH_kIYiIWgIUeITcIS\ aJS_JSYJSXJTWJTVJUUKUTKVSKVRKVQKWPKWOLXNLXMLYLLYKL\ XKNYJLZIK_IJ_HH`HGaGFbFEbFCcEBdEAeD9eC7fC6gB5gB4eD\ 6dE7cG9bHAaIC`KDZMEYOGXQHWRJVSKUTMSUNRVOQWQPXROYTN\ ZUL_VK`XJaYIc_He`GgbEicDjdCkfBlgAni9pj5pn8qkAqiCqg\ FqeHqcJq`LqZOqXQqVSqTUqRSoPRmOQkMPjLOhKNfILdHKcGJa\ EI_DHYBGXAEV9DT7CR6BQ5AO39M24M08L1BL2FL3IL3ML4PL5T\ L6WL6ZL7bL8eL9iL9lLApLBsLCwMAvLCuLDtLFfC7`HBWNERSI\ LXLGbPAgS5lW0qZ1oX2mV2kT3iR3gP4eN5cL5aJ6_H6ZGLhRZr\ aYqbYqbYpcYpcYpdXodXoeXneXnfXnfWmgWmgWlhWlhWlhXjjX\ hkXglXemYdnYboYapY_qYYrZXsZVtZUuZSvZRw`SsaTocTldUh\ fUdgVaiWYjWUlXRmXNoYJpYGh_IaaJVbLOdMHeNMgSQhXUiaZj\ fbkkflo`emV_kPTiKNgRP_YRSdTLkVDqW6cODQHJDAPLIMTQJU\ RJUSJVUJVWJWYJX_JZaJacLdeKggJhUIWUGQNFKGED6DF9CGBC\ HDCJGDKIDLKEMMFOPHPRHQTISWITYIU_HVaHXdGYfGZhF`kFam\ EboEcqDetDfvCgxChyClzDpzE } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; 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)+(p4)), 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
