I spent several ; minutes simply observing the curious blending of different ; orders of fractal material. ; ; Unfortunately, I never got around to rating the image, though it ; appears worthy of about a 6. IMO, the colors are a bit too pale ; and pastel-ish, but in the world of fractals, one person's ; paleness is another person's perfection. ; ; The name "Valley of the Shadow" is not nearly as ominous as it ; sounds. The image is actually quite bright and cheery. ; ; The calculation time is by far the most troublesome aspect of ; the image. The problem here is the unusually high iteration ; count of the elements in the image, most of which have an ; iteration count well above 5,000. ; ; The image may be viewed at leisure on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Sunday turned out to be a very pleasant day here at New Fractal ; Central, with a blue sky filled with puffy white clouds, and a ; cat-pleasing temperature of 68F 20C. True, the wind got a ; little gusty at times, but the warm sun soon erased any chill. ; ; My day was average. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and be at peace. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= ValleyOf_TheShadow { ; time=0:33:24.39-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=NewDivideBrot function=recip center-mag=-74.99016340175787/+1.587649774464434/\ 1.608924e+010/1/30/0 params=11/100 float=y maxiter=25000 inside=0 symmetry=none periodicity=10 colors=000mqslqplpmlojlmhklekkckiakhZjgXjeUjdSgaLi\ bOjcQldSmeUofWpfZrg`shbuidvjfzpqznnzlkwjhtheqfcnd`\ kbYh`VeZSeWPbXQ`XQYYQWYQTYQRZQOZRM_RJ_RH_RE`RC`RA`\ RCZPDXOEVNFTLGRKHPJHNHHLGGLGGKHIMGKPFMSENVDP_CRdBV\ g8Uh9Th9SiAvmlvjgvfaubWu_RuWLuSFuPAl_RcifVsvSpoQnh\ OlaMiVKgOIeHDd7GcBJbEMaHP`KS`NV_RYZU`YXcX_fXbiWflV\ ioUlrTozJyxOutTrpXomalieiejffUXfs`dpbbnc`ldZieXggV\ ehTbiR`jPZlNWmLUnJSo9SrHQpOPnWOmbNkjMij_YmVaoQdqLh\ sGkuBowDryIuxOszUrzZqzbozanz_mzXkzUjzRizTgzWfzZex`\ cvcbtfath`oiWjjRhlPejNciL`hJZfHXeGUdESbCPaAO`8N`6M\ `6M_6L_7M`9NaBOaCPbEPbGQcHRcJSdLTdMTeOUeQVfRWfTXgV\ YpQXgWWZaVQg91qUHmzhexcgs_hmWjhSkcNmYJnTFpF0pI3qL7\ qOBqRFqTKqWOqZSqaRqbRqbRpbQobQn`PpaOkbNkcMkdQkeVke\ Zjfcjggjhljipjevngvlhukitjksilrhmpgoofpneqmdspdrlc\ qhbqdbpaaoYaoU`nQ_mN_mJZlFZkBYj3Vk8YkD_kHakMdlQflV\ hl_klcmmhomlrmqtmrvmrxmqw } frm:NewDivideBrot { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=z^2*fn1(z^(a)+b)+c |z| < 1000000 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
