In ; today's I have done much coloring and little talking. But then, ; an image that rates a 9-1/2 and calculates in one minute doesn't ; need words to get its message across. ; ; The image is an oblique slice of Seahorse Valley. The orienta- ; tion is halfway between the Oblique and Rectangular directions. ; A moderate amount of skewing and a slight stretching was neces- ; sary to create the cold mystical effect. ; ; The rating of 9-1/2 might be a bit liberal, but I really do ; think the image rises above the normal mass of FOTD fractals. ; ; The name "Aurora Fractalis" is a phrase that came to mind as I ; studied the image. The calculation time of 1-1/4 minute will be ; no problem for even the most hurried fractalist. And as always, ; the finished image is or soon will be posted for instant viewing ; on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Tuesday was really not such a bad day here at Fractal Central. ; There was lots of sun and the temperature reached 43F 6C. Only ; a brisk wind kept the day from being near perfect for early ; winter. The fractal cats did not worry about the weather. For ; some reason, they were too busy sulking at each other. ; ; My day was slow, which gave ample time to find and work on the ; FOTD fractal. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. By ; then the familiar old work-day routine will be back in effect. ; Until next time, take care, and be at peace with the universe. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Aurora_Fractalis { ; time=0:01:14.43-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot2 center-mag=-0.155155/\ 0.643015/3.45136/1.0763/-90/20.2819418025888787 params=45/90/0/90/-0.7505/0/0/-0.35 float=y maxiter=32767 inside=0 logmap=5 periodicity=10 colors=000EPSFKSFKSFKSGKSGKTHKTHKTIKTIKTIKUJKUJKUK\ KUKKUKKVLKVLKVMJVMJVMJVNJWOKWOLWPLWPMWQNWQNXROXRPX\ SPXSQXTQXTRXURYUSYVTYVUYWVYXVYXWYYXZYXZZYZZY__Z`__\ a`_b`_ca`daaebafbbgcdhbfiahhcjieljhnkkqlnqnqtqtvtw\ wwzzzwxwtutqtqoqnmpmkpmiomholgnlfmkemkdljckjbkjaji\ `ji_ihZhhYhgXggWggVffUefTeeSdeRcdQcdPbdObcNacM`bL`\ bK_aJZaIZaHY`GY`FX_EW_DWZCVZ9WYBVZCV_DU`EUaFTbGTcH\ SdISeJRfKRgLRhMQiNQjOPkPPlQOnROoSNrTNtUNvVNuUNuTNu\ TMsSLqRLoRKmQKkPJiOIhOIgNHfMHeMGdLFcKFbKEaKE`KD_KC\ ZKCXKBWKAVKAUK9TK9SK8RK7QK7PK6OK6NK5MK4LK4KK3JK3IK\ 2HK1GK1FK0EK0DK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0EK0F\ K0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0FK0GK0GK0GK0GK0GK0GK0\ GK0GM0GO0GQ0GS3HS5HS7HS9HSBHSDIRFIRHIRJIRLIRNJRPJR\ RJQTJQVJQXKQZKQ`KQbKQcKQdKZOVYPTXPSWQRWQQVROURNTRM\ TSLSSJRTIQTHQTGPUEOUDNVCNVBMW9LW8KW7KX6JX4IY3HY2E_\ 0GZ1HY1IY2JX2DRRDQRDQREQR } frm:SliceJulibrot2 {; draws most slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=sqr(z)+c |z|<=9 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
