; FOTD -- February 13, 2008 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; New but minor formula alert!
; 
; Today's image is based on a formula I wrote some time back as a 
; speed test.  I'm not sure if it's the fastest way to draw the 
; (-Z)^(1.618)+C fractals or not, but I know that some of my 
; formulas that draw the same figures are notably slower.
; 
; The image shows a minibrot lying rather deep in the northern 
; branch of Seahorse Valley of the parent Mandeloid.  Since I can 
; find nothing extraordinary about it, I rated it at a measly 6.  
; The name "Golden Pilgrimage" is simply a rather poetic phrase 
; referring to the golden ratio, which is the exponent of Z in 
; today's image.
; 
; The calculation time of 11 minutes borders on slowness, so I 
; recommend viewing the image on the FOTD web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; Light snow Tuesday morning here at Fractal Central turned to 
; heavier snow in the afternoon, while the temperature hovered 
; around 16C -9C.  By evening about 5 inches, 12cm, had piled up.  
; The fractal cats observed the action with disinterest.  My day 
; was occupied with more serious work.  The next FOTD will appear 
; in 24 hours.  Until that wonderful moment, take care, and get 
; the smickey-algebroe curve.
