This parent ; fractal looks somewhat like a butterfly with a head on the ; negative X-axis shaped like a Mandelbrot bud. ; ; With thick arms converging on its mouth, this bud appears to be ; non-critical, but curious double-bays along the edges of these ; arms are filled with spider-like minibrots. Today's image shows ; one of these minibrots made all the better by rendering it with ; the inside set to 'bof61'. ; ; After all the work, I rated the image at an average 7. It's ; kind of fun to look at, with a bit of an art-deco feeling. I ; named it "Time for Thinking" for some reason that I have forgot- ; ten. The words probably just popped into my head. (An armchair ; psychologist could probably work up a complete psychoanalysis ; based on the names I give the FOTD's that just pop into my head.) ; ; Luckily for those with time issues, today's image calculates in ; only 1-1/6 minutes, about the time it takes to make a New-York ; style egg cream. (An egg cream consists of chocolate syrup, ; milk and seltzer water mixed in just the right amounts. The ; amounts are critical. It's kind of a chocolate ice-cream soda ; without the ice cream.) ; ; Those who prefer to avoid calculation may view the finished ; image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Lots of clouds and humidity with some sun and a temperature of ; 84F 29C made Sunday a perfect day for warm weather activity here ; at Fractal Central. The fractal cats believe in warm weather ; inactivity however, so they did little but eat and sleep. My ; day was correspondingly inactive. If I get the ambition, the ; next FOTD will be posted in around 12 hours. Until then, take ; care, and then do it again. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Time_for_Thinking { ; time=0:01:10.02-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.73229701362/+0.00870137264/385017.8/\ 1/82.5/0 params=1/4/1/6/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=950 inside=bof61 periodicity=10 colors=000XTBVVCSWDPYEN_FK`GHbHFdICeJ9gK7hL9dOAaRB\ YTCVWERZFO`GKcHHfJDhKAkL6nM3pN5nO7lP9kQBiRDgSFfTHd\ UJbVLaWN_XOZTNXQNWNMUKMTGLRDLQAKO7KN4KM7JKAJJDJIGI\ HJIGMIEPHDSHCVHBYHAZGDZFFZFHZEJZEKZDKZDKZCKZBKZBKZ\ AKZAKZ9IZ9GY8ET8CO7AI7AG6AI6AK6AM5AO5AQ5AS4AU4AW4A\ Y3A_3Aa3Ac8AeCAgGAiKAjOAlSKnWKp_PrcKsgUriUtkcvlcwn\ mvpmzqszqwTP8TQ6RU9Q_CPeFOjINmLMqOKrNIsMGtLEsKCvJA\ vI8tH6rG4rF2rE5rU8rmAuzCuwDutEunFujHugIudJuaKuZLuW\ KrUKoTJmRJjQIgPIeNHbMH`KGYJGVIFTGFQFFOEINFLMGNMGQL\ HSLHVKIXKI_JJaJJcLKdMKfOLgPLiRLjSMlUMmVNoXNpYNr_Os\ `OtaOqfRokUmoWktZix`ksblodmkfnghobipZkrVmsRotMpuIr\ vEtwAvx6wsBsnGojKlePh`UdXYaZ`c`bebdgdfieijgklimnko\ plrqntspvurxwszxtrntketcXuXNuPEuI5sJ8qKApLCnMElNGk\ OIiPKgQMfQOdNMbKKaHI_EGYCEX9CV6AT38S16R28R39Q4AQ5B\ Q6CP7DP7EP8GO9HOAIOBJNCKNDLNDMcHaWLfOPkGTp8Xu0_z4`\ x8`vBatFarIapMbnQblTcjXch } 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
