FL and I ; decided to have a fun afternoon on Saturday, and, not wanting to ; carry along the laptop, (I never do), I had to forget the frac- ; tal search. But when we returnrd to FC late in the afternoon, I ; had good luck with the search for the day's fractal. ; ; Good luck is always necessary because one of the greatest ; problems in the continuing FOTD is how to avoid giving the ; impression that the images all look the same -- just another ; minibrot with just so much more fractal variety around it. ; ; Today's image was found in the East Valley of the parent that ; results when 1.1 part of plain Z is combined with Z^11 and plain ; C is added, and it actually does appear at least a little ; different from what has gone before. But to be honest I must ; mention that the parent fractal is a Mandelbrot set with 10 east ; valleys, which are on its west-southwest side. Today's scene is ; located in the break between valleys 5 and 6. ; ; I named the image "Flight of the Bird", leaving it to the viewer ; to supply the exact identity of the 'bird'. I rated the image ; at a 7 -- FOTD average. ; ; The calculation time of 44 seconds is almost breathtakingly ; fast, so if shortness of breath becomes a problem, the finished ; image is or soon will be available for instant pleasure on the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The image will bring some pleasure, but it will not answer the ; question of why there is something instead of nothing. ; ; A warm muggy day on Saturday with a temperature of 84F 29C was ; given variety by a short but sharp shower at 6pm. The fractal ; cats do not worry about rain, so they slept through the event. ; ; My day was relaxing. If all goes well, the next FOTD will ; likely be posted in about 8 hours. If not, the wait will be ; longer. Until whenever, take care and worry not. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Flight_of_the_Bird { ; time=0:00:44.10-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.1254246947312831/-0.038926514109924/\ 6.77158e+011/1/10/0 params=1/11/1.1/1/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=800 inside=0 logmap=74 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=00003B04C05D06E07F08G09H0AI3BK5CM7DO8FQBPVD\ V`F`zHpzIzzRpz_dzoBEY8MH5U03aTT`XUa`VbdWcgXckYdoZe\ c_i0`mHSgYJanAXlDBiMLfUVcac`imYqvXroWrhVsaVsVUtOTt\ HSuASu4Wq8_mCbiGffJibNmZRpWUDuQLpWSk`_fefajj_hnZfq\ YduXbxWasUboScjQdfOeaMfYKgUJhWFcXC_Y8WZ5S_2OZ5MZ8L\ YBKYEJYHIXKHXNGXQFPctQeoQgkRifRkbXgfacif_mkWppSsqQ\ jqObqMVqKNvRdzXu_iU9u3X_cUbbSeaPhaNk`Kn`Iq_FtZcMZZ\ NSUPK`BQS19dMb`OZXQVSSROUNKWJFYFfMbdNZbOW`QSZROXSL\ VTHTVDQaf6sggMeeOddPcbRcaSb_UaZV`XX`WY_U_ZT`YRbYQc\ XOeWMgVfLcdM`aNY_OVXPTVQQSRNQRKOSHLTFJUCGV9EW6BX3d\ Nb_Q_VSXQVULXRG_OXdZLyRgOafSXeVTdZOcaKbeFahB_l6hNe\ hQehTehVehYeg`djJelGfnDgpAhr7ijTXmaNojDrs3gNefQeeT\ edVecYeb`eabe_eeZheYjeXmeVRdTTZzzTzzNzzHzzIzzJzzKz\ zOzzRVzVRzYNz`IzdEzgAzjBzgCzeDzzEzzEzzBzz9zz7zz5zz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztzzqzzozzlzzjzzgzzezz\ SzzEzzLzzSzzZzzdzzUzz`zzg } 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========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
