Today's scene is located on the inside of the north ; branch of the valley that encloses this bud. ; ; Rarely have I seen a fractal with so many spirals. The name ; "Oodles of Spirals" came almost automatically. I could have ; named it 'A Slew of Spirals' but I'm not sure how many a slew ; is. ; ; At first glance the coloring impressed me as having too many ; blues and greens, and not enough reds, but the longer I looked ; at the colors, the better they appeared to me. ; ; When the time came to rate the image, I pulled a 7 out of the ; fractal basket, and the rating stuck. The calculation time of ; only 1-1/2 minutes will make life a joy for even the busiest ; fractalist. And if even 99.86 seconds is too much to spare, the ; finished image may be accessed in its full glory on the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; Unusually brisk weather prevailed here at Fractal Central on ; Wednesday. The sun was strong, but a biting north wind and ; morning temperature of 36F 2C made it feel more like February. ; The fractal cats agreed as they fought for possession of their ; catnip rat. ; ; My day was about as routine as a day can be. The next FOTD will ; be posted in its full glory only 24 hours from now. Until then, ; take care, and if ghosts exist only in the minds of the super- ; stitious, they do in fact exist, but exactly where are these ; ghosts located? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Oodles_of_Spirals { ; time=0:01:39.86-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.5598091849845/+0.0619018865197/\ 6.05367e+007/1/-44/0 params=1/1.997/1/4.003/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=975 inside=0 logmap=97 periodicity=10 colors=000LpzLmwLltLjqKinKgkKehLdeMdbMd_NdXOeUOeTP\ eTPeSQeSSgUUiWWkYYm__oaaqccseergepidnlclnbjo_hoYel\ VbiT_fQXcOV`LTYJRVHPSENRCMP9JN7HK4EG2BC08928A4BC5D\ E7GF9IHALJCOLEQMFTOHVQJYSKZTM_UOZUQZUSYTUZUWZUXZUX\ _UW_UW_UW_UW`VV`VV`VV`VVaVVaVUaVUaVUbWUbWTbWTbWTcW\ TcWScWScWSdXSdXSdXRdXReXReXReXQeXQfYQfYQfYPfYQgYUi\ WZkUcmShoQmoOrsNvtNztNzsOzsOzrOzrPzrPwqPtqQqpQnpQk\ pRhoReoRbnSanS_nSZmTZmTYlTXlUXlUWkUVkVVjVUjVUkWTlY\ Sm_SmaRncQneQogPoi3ok5nj6ni7mh9mgAlfBlfDkeEkdFjcGj\ bIiaJiaKh`Mh_NgZOeZOcZOcYNcXMcWLaVNdUs2yr3xq4wq5wp\ 6vo7vo7un8un9tmAtlBslCrkCrkDqjEqiFpiGphGohHogInfJn\ fKmeLleLldMkcNkcOjbPjaQiaQi`Rh`Sg_TgZUfZUfYVeYWeXX\ dWYdWZcVZcV_bU`aTaaTb`Sc`Sc_Rd_QeZQfZPgYzzFzzGzzGz\ zHzzHzzHzzIzzIzzIzzJzzJzzKzzKzzKzzLzzLzzLzzMzzMzzN\ zzNzzNzzOzzOzzOzzPzzPzzQzzQzzQzzRzzRzzRzzSzzSzzTzz\ TzzTzzUzzUzzUzzVzzVzzkzzn } 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
