I named it when I ; pondered the fact that the image is not really there. It is an ; evaporated image, a ghost if you will, made manifest by the ; 'bof61' inside fill. ; ; Since ghosts are not supposed to be real, I could give the image ; a rating no higher than a 7, but it's actually a rather pleasant ; diversion, whose only drawback is the slow calculation time of ; 15-1/2 minutes on my fast P4-2000 machine and almost 1-1/2 hours ; on the slow old P200. ; ; The image itself is indescribable, vaguely resembling some ; exotic tropical jungle. There is a midget at the center, but it ; lies far beyond the resolution limit. In fact, the resolution ; is already starting to break down in the actual image. The ; 'mathtolerance' entry is necessary to assure that the parameter ; file renders at the correct magnitude of 3.66*10^12. ; ; The generating expression combines various negative portions of ; Z^(-1.1) and Z^(-11.1) then adds (1/C). Before it is evaporated ; the resulting parent fractal is an immensely oversized thing ; consisting mostly of rings and requiring several outzooms to fit ; completely onto the screen. Today's scene lies in the East ; Valley area of a large minibrot not too far southeast of the ; origin. ; ; The frustrating wait for the parameter file to finish may be ; avoided by stopping by the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and viewing the already finished image there. ; ; A few too many clouds and a temperature a few degrees too chilly ; made Sunday only an average day here at Fractal Central. The ; fractal cats were not bothered by the temperature of 52F 11C, ; but those pesky pigeons pecking on the sidewalk annoyed them no ; end. Finally however the pigeons flew away and the cats settled ; down for their afternoon naps. ; ; My day was as good as could reasonably be expected. The next ; FOTD image and discussion will be posted at this same internet ; spot in about 24 hours. Until then, take care, and where will ; the universe be a google years from now? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Spectral_Encounter { ; time=0:15:31.59-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+7.365065632339196/-7.058195106026997/\ 3.660111e+012/1.0009/162.8253108182/0.065113202793 params=-5/-1.1/-11/-11.1/0/1e+100/0/0 float=y maxiter=6000 inside=bof61 logmap=1274 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000aKWbOUZSRVWOR_LNcIJgGFeDBcA7`74_58X9BVDE\ TGHRVKPNNN`RKVUIYXGa_EdbCheAkcEmbHn`Ko_NpYQqXUsVXt\ U_uSbvRewA63D95GB6IE7KG8NJ9QLBSOCUQDXSE_VFaXHc_Ifa\ JidKkfLnhMogNpfOqfPpePoeQodRndRmcSmbTmbUmaUnaVn`Wm\ `WjZTgXRdVPaTPZRPWPPTNPQLPNJNKJLHIJFIKEIKCIKBIKAIK\ EJKHKKKKKNLKQLKTMKWMHZNEaNBdO8gO5_QKTSYMUkFWyJ`kMe\ ZPjMSo9Ss5XdT`RpbQodQofQogQniQnkQnmQmnPmpPmrPltPlu\ PlwPkyPkzPkyQhxQfwQdvQbuR_tRYsRWsRUrSRqSPpSNoSLnTI\ mTGlTElTCiUEgUGeUIcUK`ULZUNXUPVVRTVTQVUOVWMVYKV_IV\ `NTZSQXXNVaKTfIS`HRVGQPGPJFODEN7EM4aW2xe5ph8ijBblE\ WnJ`lOekTjiYnhdVJbTHjREjSCfSAbN8XJ6TF4JF2IF0IJ6INC\ JRIJVOJYUI`_IcdM``QZYUWUYURaRNePKiMKrPKzUPvGGnELhC\ QbAVX8_F9`H9aJAaLAbNBcPBcQCdSCeUDeWDfYEg_EgaFhbFhc\ FgcGedHcdIbeI`eJ_fKYfKXeK_MUQWUZeUgnUpiUkeUfaUaYUX\ UUTQUOMUJIUEEU9AZ5Dc5Fh5Im5mr5mv5mz5mz5mz5mz5mz5az\ 5cz5fz5hz5kz5mz5iz7RzKQzM } 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
