The sixteen brilliantly colored basins surrounding the ; central minibrot certainly do stand out like candles in a dimly ; lit room. ; ; The parent fractal involves Mandeloids of orders 2 and minus-3. ; I'll not try to describe the parent fractal this combination ; produces, but it's certainly worth a quick look. ; ; After a moment's consideration, I rated today's image at a ; rather impressive 8, not too bad for an image created during a ; half-hour work break. But I must admit that most of the ; coloring was created not by me, but by a stroke of the ; key. ; ; The calculation time of just under 2 minutes will pass like a ; flash in the dark. To avoid all risk of impatience, the ; completely rendered image is or soon will be posted on the FOTD ; web site at: ; ; ; ; Periods of brilliant sun alternated with heavy clouds and sharp ; showers here at Fractal Central on Thursday. Just before sunset ; a rainbow appeared in a passing shower, ending the day with a ; burst of splendor. The fractal cats, who do not enjoy showers ; and rainbows, thought the temperature of 46F 8C was too chilly ; for comfort and spent most of the day near the hallway radiator. ; ; My day was spent working at the FC computer, which is positioned ; with a window to the side, allowing a view of the outside condi- ; tions with a glance to the left. Unless something unexpected ; comes up, the next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and don't be caught texting or you'll be twittered. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Sixteen_Candles { ; time=0:01:55.80-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=AllNewDivideBrot function=recip float=y center-mag=+28.3662156592203/0/2.48e+011/1 inside=0 params=-3/-1000000000 maxiter=3200 symmetry=xaxis logmap=405 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000NAD000E0KHIBH5DH7FH9IGBKGDMGFPGHRFJTFLWF\ NYFP_FRaEVODZBFZEHZHJZKLZNNZQPZTRZWTZZVZ`PNLJC5IE6\ IG7IH8HJ9HKAHMBGNCGPCGQDFSEFNFFHKENHEbIEcIDWGCUFBR\ EAPCANB9KA8I97G76D66B559346234132045457769A7BE8DH9\ FK9HNAJRBLUCNXDP`ERcFTfFViKRkONlTJmXFnaBoe8pb7q`6q\ Z6rX5rV4sT4sQ3tO2tM2uK1uI0vG0vH4uH8uICuIGuIKuJOtJS\ tKWtK_tKcteiXfVdYMaVUbSacPidMpdOmeQjeSheUeeWczYmz_\ ZzamzcTzeRzgOfiMfkJflHfkFdjEciDbiBahA`g9_f7Yf6Xe5W\ d3Vc2Uc1TYHYSWbMkgHzkGrlFkmEcnEXoDPpCIqCBrMvYFhK8W\ 69PG9IQ9Bs94zP6mc8Qr9Hl8Jg8Kb8MX7NS7PN7QI7RJATKCVL\ EWMHYMJ_NL`ONbPQdQSeQUgRWiSZjT`lUbnUdoVapWZqXWrYTs\ ZQt_Nu`LvaJrbIocHldGieFffEcgD`gCYhBViASj9Pk8Ml7Jm6\ Gn5DnKAoP9pU9pZ9qc8qh8rm8sr7sv7tz7tk6uz6us6pz9krBg\ zDbqFZzIUqzPpzzpzKpzzozLozzozRqzUrWXtz_uZbvzexhhyz\ kzrnzzqzztzzwzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } frm:AllNewDivideBrot { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=b*(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
