The image is typical of the stuff I throw in the trash ; bin several times every day. ; ; The name I gave the image, "No Discontinuities", is not true. I ; thought it was true when I named the image, but a closer examina- ; tion revealed a subtle break extending west-southwest from the ; west end of the minibrot. But considering that the image is a ; mixture of Z^2 and Z^4.5 features, the existence of only this ; single minor fault line is unexpected. ; ; The scene is obviously in the Seahorse Valley area of a larger ; parent fractal, in this case a grossly inflated Mandelbrot set, ; which takes on new and unusual characteristics in its depths. ; ; A barely noticeable fault line does not make a great fractal ; image. Since I could find little else of worth in the scene, I ; rated it at a humble and below-average 4. ; ; The calculation time of 3 minutes may be cut to 2 minutes, with ; only a slight loss of accuracy, by rendering the image with the ; passes set to 'g' instead of the '1' in the parameter file. ; ; The image may be seen in full accuracy in even less than 2 ; minutes by visiting the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where it is posted for instant satisfaction. ; ; Total sun and a temperature of 86F 30C made Thursday seem like a ; July day here at Fractal Central. The fractal cats had their ; thrill when they spotted two pigeons cooing and doing naughty ; things on the side walkway. My thrill came when I finished the ; unexpectedly heavy work and chose the unexpectedly lackluster ; fractal. ; ; The next FOTD, certainly no burning ship, will be posted in 24 ; hours. Until then, take care, and try to fill the hollow inside. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= No_Discontinuities { ; time=0:03:01.59-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=NewDivideBrot function=recip passes=1 center-mag=-149.5262833418637/+23.25272903656032/\ 26715.09/1/-40.25/0 params=4.5/200 float=y maxiter=25000 inside=0 logmap=140 periodicity=10 colors=0008gz9hzAhyBhvChsChpDimEijFigGidGibFjdFkfF\ lhFljFmlEnnEopEorEptEqvCszEqxGpwIovJnsLmqNkoPjmQik\ ShiUggWeeXdcZca`a_b_YbZXbYVaXSaWRaVP`UN_TL_SLZRKYQ\ JXOIXNHWLGVKF`G8VJFFC5QLL_T_i`nbVeXPYRKPLEHF88930C\ 62F93IC4LE5OH6RK8UN9XPA_SBbVCeYEh_FkbGneHsgHpgIngJ\ kgKigLfgMffLdgNchObiPajR`kS_lTZmVYnWXoXWpZVq_Ur`Ts\ bStcRudNthQueSubUu`XuYZuW`vTbvRevOgvMivJkwHnwEpwCr\ w9tw7qu7nt7kr7hq7eo7bn7_l7Xk7Ui7Rh7Me5Pg7Sh9UiAXkC\ _lDamFdoGgpIiqJelHbhG_dFX`DUXCRTBOP9LL8IH7FD6KEBPE\ GTEKYEPaETfEYg8YjEamKepPigPcZPZHKVRPU`UTjZSsdMtcSu\ bXvabw`gx`luZjsYiqXhzVgmUfkTdiScgQbePacO`z3ZzN_zf`\ zz`zyZzwYzuXzsWzqZGo`zmbzmdzmfzmhzmrzmjzmbzoVzqNkt\ Fzw7zz0zz2zz4zz6zz8zzAzzCzzFzzDzzCzzBzzAzz9zz8fz7z\ z6zz5zzNzzOzzOzzOzzOzzOzzOzzOzzPzzPzzPzzPzzPJzPzzP\ zzPzzazznzz6zzzzztzzozzizzdzz_zzUzzPzzJzzVzzVzzVzz\ XzzZzz`zzazzczzezzfzzhzzj } 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
