This parent looks like a scene to be discarded fast, ; but when stretched and skewed to a great degree, the stripes ; turn into a poppy field in the land of Oz. It must be OZ; the ; scene most certainly is not in Kansas (or Pennsylvania). ; ; Seeing the fractal poppies blowing in the invisible wind under ; an azure sky, I named the image "Poppy Fields of Oz". Then I ; gave it a rating of 8.5, which includes 1/2 point for my color- ; ing. Such a smooth color palette is quite difficult to achieve ; with only 256 colors available. ; ; The calculation time of 2-1/3 minutes is brief enough to avoid ; boredom. The image is also available on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; All good things must come to an end, and so the good weather of ; Friday came to an end on Saturday as heavy clouds moved in and ; rain began. At the same time, the temperature of 57F 14C was a ; bit too chilly for the fractal cats, who spent the afternoon ; with sour looks on their faces when their anticipated sun failed ; to appear. A treat of tuna cheered them however. ; ; My day was slow -- a welcome change after a busy week. The next ; FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, walk ; with confidence, and believe that change is coming. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Poppy_Fields_of_Oz { ; time=0:02:22.63-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2000 type=formula formulafile=slices.frm formulaname=RectangularN passes=1 center-mag=-0.00255084527186440/+0.000015032024027\ 91/178233/0.001255/0.148/89.811 params=1.1/0/0/0/\ 0.041627863/-0.002064849 float=y maxiter=10000 inside=0 logmap=136 periodicity=10 colors=000YNzYOzYPzYQzYRzOdxPdxQdxRdxSdxTdxUdxVdxX\ dxYdxZdy_dzadzaezbfzbgzbhzcizdjzckzdlzdmzemzfnzfoz\ gozhpzipzipzjqzkqzkqzlqzmqznqznqzoqzpqzprzqrzrrzrr\ zsrztrwtrttrqsqmsqhsqcrqZrqUrqPrqKqqGqqFqqFqqFpqFp\ pEppEppEopEopEopDopDnpDnpDnpDnpCmpCmpCmoCmoBloBloB\ loBloBkoAkoAkoAkoAjoAjo9jn9jn9in9in8in8in8hn8hn8hn\ 7hn7gn7gn7gn7gm6fm6fm6fm6fm5em5em5em5em4em4em4dm4d\ m4cl5ck5bj5bj5ai5ai5`h5`h5_g5_f5Zf5Ze5Ye5Yd5Xc5_c5\ mb5cb5cc6zc6cm6Zm6cc6cc6vn6zb6zc6zc6zm6cV6`V6YU6VU\ 6ST6PS6NR7MQ7KQ7KQ7KQ7UQ7UPPUQ7KQ7KQ7IM7HL7HL7GK7G\ J7FJ7UI7UI7UH7DG7DG8CF8CE8BE8BD8UD8AC89B89B88A8UA8\ U98788688U78678U8978989A89AU9A99BAABUABAACBBCBBCCB\ DCBDDCDUCDECEEDEEDEFDFFEFGEFGEGHEGHFGHFHIFHIGHJGIJ\ GIKGIKHJKHJLHJLIKMIKMIKNIKNJLOJLOJLOKMPKMPKMQKNQLN\ RLNRLORMOSMOSMPTMPTNPUNQUNQUOQVORVORWPRWPRXPSXPSYQ\ SYQTYQTZRTZRU_RU_RU`SV`SV } frm:RectangularN {; Jim Muth b=p1, z=flip(real(pixel))+p2, c=flip(imag(pixel))+p3: z=z^(b)+c, |z| <= 16 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
