The built-in manzpower formula did the job all by ; itself. The parent fractal is the Z^(5.001)+C Mandeloid, which ; on the surface looks exactly like the Z^5+C Mandeloid. But this ; surface similarity is deceiving, as the valley on the negative ; X-axis is entirely different. ; ; Today's scene lies quite deep in the debris lining the edge of ; this valley, which resembles a wedge more than a fractal valley. ; I named the image "A Fractured Valley". One look at the image ; will explain the name. The rating of 8-1/2 includes a half- ; point bonus for my coloring work, which really is the better ; part of the image. ; ; The calculation time of just under 4 minutes is well within ; reason for such a worthy image. And if unreason prevails, the ; finished GIF image will soon be posted to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Wednesday began chilly, damp and dreary here at Fractal Central, ; but a warm front passed at noon and the afternoon turned most ; pleasant. The sky cleared and the temperature shot up from 43F ; 6C to 64F 18C. The fractal cats approved of the improved condi- ; tions and eagerly watched the squirrels that came out to gather ; last-minute nuts in the yard. ; ; My day was routine, but tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day in the ; U.S., and F.L. says there is a special dinner in the works. ; Regardless, the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours. Until next ; time, take care, and don't give up the fractal. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Fractured_Valley { ; time=0:03:52.39-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=manzpower passes=1 center-mag=-0.5\ 354169829881127/-0.00042766186970615/7.515239e+011\ /1/-127.5/-0.03 params=0/0/5.001/0 float=y inside=0 maxiter=3600 logmap=472 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000UWAVM8WD7_M6cV6gc5kl5mu5huUctcZs_UqOSoVQ\ jaVehZan`clbekdgifhhhjgjlelndnocl`LkN3kV5kb7ki9ekC\ _lFUmIOoLIpOCqQGddJTrd_zhewljtpoqstndnZRhKDc5K_7QX\ 8WT9aQAhNCnJDtGEzDFrHJjLMbPQWSTOWXG__8cc1ffC`bMWZW\ RWeMSoHPhXRblSW`aQPkKEtPHpTKmXMj`PfdSchU`lXXp_UtaR\ u_SuYTuWUvUVvSWvQXwOYwMZwK_xI`xGaxEbyCcyAdy8erJ`kU\ WlzwhxwjuwflsfhkYaVXcWVeWUgXTiYRiYQjZPjZNk_Mk_Ll`K\ l`NjbQicThdVgfYeg`dhbcjebkh`lj_nmZopYprXqnamj`gg_b\ dZXaYSZXMWXHXYIXZJX_KX`LY`LYaMYbNYcOYdPZdPZeQZfRZg\ SZgSHS_0Cg7AcE8`L6XS4UZ2Qd1Na2M_2LY2KW2JT2JR2IP2HN\ 2GL2GN5FP7ER9ETBDVDCXFCZHB`JAbLAdN9eP9`MVSYdByV_wm\ MdedDScGRbIQaLP`OO_QN_TNZWzYYLX`KWcJVeIUhHUjHVfIVc\ JV`KVYLVVMVSNVPNWMOWJPWGQWDRWASWKTWPT8UpCZnFclJhjM\ mhQrgTveXzc_zacz`fzZjzXmzVpzUozXnz_mzalzdkzgkzimzh\ nzhozhnzjmzllzmkzokzphzkezgczc`zZZzVWzRUzMRzIPzE`z\ MmzUyzatzbozbjzbfzb5zRTzC } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
