We have raised the maxiter to 125,000 and ; given the stripe quite a bit of stretching in the vertical ; direction to make sense of it. Without the stretching, today's ; scene would be a single horizontal line across the screen. ; ; In my opinion, the sinuous hairline tendrils are the most ; interesting feature of the scene. At other angles such as the ; Mandelbrot and Julia, these tendrils form infinitely deep ; spirals, though nothing at all of a spiral nature is visible in ; today's image. (Actually, I consider fractal spirals to be ; over-rated and grossly over-represented.) ; ; I rated today's image at a 6, none of which is due to the bland ; coloring. And don't be shocked at the calculation time of an ; hour plus 20 minutes. Eliminate the calculation by hurrying to ; the FOTD web site instead, where the image is or soon will be ; posted. The web site may be found at: ; ; ; ; Absolutely perfect conditions prevailed here at Fractal Central ; on Sunday, though my weather-eye did spot one distant thunder ; cloud on the northeast horizon. The resident fractal cats spent ; the day enjoying the brilliant sun and temperature of 81F 27C. ; My day was spent recovering from the day before. The next FOTD ; will be posted in 24 hours. This is a virtual but not literal ; guarantee. Until then, take care, and know your chakras. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Seahorse_Valley-15 { ; time=1:19:57.97-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=multirot-XZ-YW-new passes=1 center-mag=0/+0.00425094814353898/114330.5/\ 2.124e-005 params=90/30/2/0/0/0/-0.750035/0 float=y maxiter=125000 inside=0 symmetry=yaxis periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000viPvhOugNufNteMtdLscLsbKraJr`Jq_IqZHpYHp\ XGoWFoVFnUEnTDmSDmRClQBlPBkOAkN9jM9jL8iK7iJ7hI6hH5\ gG5gF4fE3fD3eC2gC0eB2cA4bA6`98_8AY8CX7EV6GS1MT3KT4\ JU5IU6HV7GV8FV9EWADWBCXCBXDAYE9YF8YF2YG5YG7YG9YGBY\ GDYGFYGHYGJYGMYGOYGQYGSYGUYGWYGYYG_ZC_YE`YFaYGaYHb\ YIbYJcXLcXMdXNdXOeXPeXQfWSfWTgWUgWVhWWiWXiWYjV_jV`\ kVakVblVclVdmUfmUgnUhnUioUjoUkpVmpUlpTkpSkpRjpQjpP\ ipOipNhpNhpMgpLgpKfpJfpIepHepGdpGdpFcpEcpDbpCbpBap\ Aap9`p9`p9_o9_n9Zm9Zl9Yk9Yj9Xi9Xh9WgmWfkVeiVdgVceU\ bcTa_R`WQ_SOZQNYOMXMMWKLVILUGLUEKVCKWAJWAKXAJYAKYA\ JZAK_AJ_AK`AJ`AKaAJbAJbAJcAIdAIdAHeAHeAGfAGgBFgBFh\ BEiBEiBDjBDjBCkBClBClBBmBBnBAnBAoB9oB9pB8qB8qB7rB7\ sB6sB6tSkjOblLVnHMpEErB6tHWrIywKxuLwsMvqNupOunQtlR\ sjSriTrgUqeVpcXobYo`ZnZ_mX`lWalUckSdjReiPfhNghLigK\ jfIkeGleEmdDncBpb9qb7ra6s`4t_2u_1t`2t`2ta3ta3ta4tb\ 4tb5tb5tc6tc6tc7td7td8zb3 } frm:multirot-XZ-YW-new {; Jim Muth ; 0,0=para, 90,0=obl, 0,90=elip, 90,90=rect e=exp(flip(real(p1*.01745329251994))), f=exp(flip(imag(p1*.01745329251994))), z=f*real(pixel)+p3, c=e*imag(pixel)+p4: z=z^(p2)+c, |z| <= 36 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
