I confess, I ; was just not in the mood on Sunday to search for a better ; fractal. Is this the beginning of the end of my fascination ; with these incredible images? I think not, but only time will ; tell. ; ; As for today's image, it lies in the Seahorse Valley area of the ; same parent fractal that gave us yesterday's image. I didn't ; even feel like calculating a new parent fractal. ; ; Of course, I gave the image no rating. It deserves none. But I ; did give it a name -- "A Strange Seahorse". The name indicates ; that the Seahorse Valley in which today's image lies is quite ; strange when compared to the Seahorse Valley of the classic ; Mandelbrot set. ; ; And the calculation time of almost 10 minutes is notably slower ; than I would have liked, but relief is at hand on the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; where the image is posted for instant happiness. ; ; Sunday at Fractal Central was partly cloudy with a temperature ; of 63F 17C, while the fractal cats were on their better ; behavior. My day was lazy, but not depressingly so. The next ; FOTD will be posted for all the world to enjoy in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and spread the word of fractals. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Strange_Seahorse { ; time=0:09:56.33-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+3.68754563329/-0.14920767621/2050486/\ 1/165/0 params=0.7/1.414/-0.9/1.732/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=6800 inside=0 logmap=726 periodicity=10 colors=0008ZK9_L9aMAcOAePBgRBiSCjTClVDnWDpYErZEs_J\ qYNpXSoWWmV_lUdkShiRmhQqgPufOtbQtZRtVStRUtNVtJWtFY\ tBZt7_t4`s7arAaqCapFaoIbnKbmNblQbkSckVcjYci_chbdge\ dfgdejddmecoebrebteVpfNlfFhf8ef9bg9`h9Yi9Wj9UkARlA\ PmAMnAKoAIpBFqBDrBAsB8tB6uD8tFAtHCtIEsKGsMIsOKsPMr\ ROrTQrVSrWUqYWq_Yqa_qbapdcpfepggpehlchibhe`hb_hZYh\ WXhTVhPThMShIQhFPhBNh8Mh5Nf7Oe8Od9PcBPbCQaDQ`ERZGR\ YHSXISWJTVLTUMUTNUSOPQSKOWFM_AKc5Ig0Gj3Jg6LddAOd9P\ c8Qc7Rb7Sb6Ta5Ua5UZ6OW6JT6DQ68O63WEFcLQkT`r_knYhkX\ fhWceVabTZ_SXXRUUQSRPPONNLMKILIFKFCID9HA6G83F50E31\ G51I62J72L83M93OA3PB4RD4TE5UF5WG6XH6ZI6_J7aL7cM8dN\ 8fO9gP9mQ9`R6eI4a92Y1KJ7`5Dc4De4Dh4Cj3Cm3Co3Cr2Bt2\ Bw2By2BvBFsKJpSMmTOkTPhTRfUScUUaUV_UXXVYVV_SV`QWbN\ WcLWeJWfIXdIYcHYbHZaGZ`G__F_ZFaYEcWEeVDgUDiTCkSFmR\ KoQPqPUsNZuMcvLhwKmxJryIvzHzzGzzKzzNzzQzzTzzWzz_zz\ bzzezzhzzkzzCzzEzzFzzHzzI } 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
