Today's image is located ; on the duck's back, at the base of its rather lengthy neck. ; ; Much of the figure-eight-shaped network in the image consists of ; 'inside' stuff made visible by the 'bof60' inside fill. With ; the regular work being rather heavy here at FC on Tuesday, I had ; little time to devote to the coloring, limiting the image to a ; rating of 6. ; ; The calculation time of 3-3/4 minutes borders on slowness, so I ; recommend a speedy trip to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; to view the finished image at leisure there. ; ; Sunny skies made the outdoors appear pleasant here at Fractal ; Central on Tuesday. But this was true only from indoors. When ; one went outside, the biting north wind and temperature of 19F ; -7C brought the truth home -- it is still winter, and will be ; for almost three weeks. The fractal cats did not worry them- ; selves about the calendar. They spent the entire afternoon ; enjoying the warm sunlight streaming in the window and warming ; their watch-shelf. ; ; And I spent the day working. With the work now caught up, the ; next FOTD is quite likely to be posted in 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and walk with confidence. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Astro-Iterations { ; time=0:03:44.91-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip center-mag=-0.594363042293016/+0.011311085972806/\ 122518.3/1/-150/0 params=2/0.75/-2/-1.8/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=950 inside=bof60 periodicity=10 colors=000ZPn_Rm_Tm`Vm`XlaZla`lbblbdkcfkchkdjjdlje\ njepjdqicricshbshbtgaug`vg`vf_wf_xeZyeZyeZqhZljZfl\ Z`oZVqZPsXNoWMlUKiTJfSHcQG`PEXNDUMBRLAOJ8LI7IH6FG5\ GF5GF5GE5HD5HD5HC5IB5IB5IA5JA5J95J85K85K75K65L65L5\ 5L45M45M35M35M57N68O7AP8BQ9DRBESCGTDHUEJVFKWHLXINY\ JOZKQ_LR`NTaOUbPWcQXdRYdSZeTZfUZgV_hV_iW_jX`kY`lZ`\ mZ`mY`nXanWaoVaoPYpKUpFQqAMqBOnCQlDSiETgFVeFXbGY`H\ _ZIaWJcUKdSKfPLhNMiLNkIOmGmrEhnEclEZkEUjEWhEXgEZfE\ _eEadEbbEdaEe`Eg_EhZEjYEkXEmWEnVEoUEpWEpXEqYEqZEr_\ Er`EsbEscEtdEteEufEugEuhEvgFvfFvfFveGveGvdGvdHvcHv\ bHvbIvaIvaIv`Jv`Jv_Jv_JtUGrODpIAnC7l64j02i25i37i4A\ f6Cc7EzUHvPJoKLlFOiDQiFSiGViHXiJZiKaiLciMejNckOblP\ `mQ_mRZnSXoTWpUVpVTqWSrXRsYPsZOt_Nu`LvaKvaJtbKscKr\ cKqdKpdLoeLneLmfLlgMkgMihMhhMgiNfiNejNdkNckOblOalO\ `mO_mOZnNYnNXnNWoMVoMUoMTpLSpLRpLQqRPqdOqzBfzFYzJO\ ANF8PGHRHQTIZVJgXJoYLnZNn } 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========================================= ; ; ;
