I have posted ; several similar images over the 12-year history of the FOTD, but ; as far as I can remember none of them have had a sky filled with ; altocumulus clouds or foreground rocks with such texture. ; ; The name "Alto-Cumulufractal" refers to the appearance and ; colors of the sky and rocks, which I actually did put some extra ; effort into. The rating of an 8 might be a bit liberal for an ; image so similar to several earlier images. I like it however. ; ; The parent fractal closely resembles the default Z^(2.5)+C ; Mandeloid. Today's scene is located in a tiny valley very near ; the X-axis, at the western edge of the fractal. ; ; The clouds in the image sky are more interesting than first ; meets the eye. I'm not sure if any minibrots lie in the clouds, ; but I might check the area a bit after posting this FOTD. ; ; The calculation time of 6-1/3 minutes is reasonably speedy. The ; trip to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; to view the completed image is even speedier. ; ; A cloudy, chilly but dry day here at Fractal Central on Thursday ; made little impression on the fractal cats, who spent a good ; part of the afternoon trying to get an early tuna treat, while ; the temperature of 55F 13C kept the FC heat running. The cats ; finally discovered the heat and remained snugly warm until treat ; time arrived. ; ; My day was average, which means there was nothing to note in my ; journal. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and why is it so hard to keep a positive attitude in ; such a negative world? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Alto-Cumulufractal { ; time=0:06:20.73-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=AllNewDivideBrot function=recip float=y center-mag=-1.320354892564229/-0.00001604110502265\ /467622/1/-12.5/0 params=2.5/1 float=y maxiter=1500 passes=1 inside=255 logmap=513 periodicity=10 colors=000FFVEFWEGWEGXEGYEHZEHZDH_DI`DIaDIaDJbDJcC\ JdCKdCKeCKfCKgCKgCKhBKiBKjBKjBKkBKlBKmAKmAKnAKoAKp\ AKpAKq9Kr9Ks9Ks9Kt9Ku9Kv8Jw9Kv9Kv9Lv9Lv9Mu9Mu9MuAN\ uAOtAPtAPtAQtAQuAQuBRuBRuBTuBTuBTuBUuBUvCVvCVvCWvC\ XvCXvCYvCYvDZvDZwD_wD_wD`wDawDawEbxEbxEbxEcxEcxEey\ EeyFfyFfyFfyFgzFgzFhzFhzGizGizGhzGizGizGjzGjzGjzHk\ zHkzHkzHkzHlzHlzHkzIlzIlzImzIlzImzImzImzJmzJmzJnzJ\ nzJnzJozJozKpzKpzKqzKqzKqzKrzKrzLszLszLtzLtzLtzLuz\ LuzMvzMvzMvzMwzMwzMxzMxzNyzNyzNyzNzzNzzNvzNvzMwzNv\ zNvzNvzNvzNvzNvzzvzNvzNvzzvzNvzNvzzuzNuzNuzNuzNuzz\ uzzuzNuzzuzzuzNuzzuzNtzztzztzNtzztzztzNtPztzNtOztz\ NtNztzNsNzszNsMzszNsLzszNsLzszNsKzszNsJzszNsIzrzNr\ IzrzNrHzrzNrGzrzzrzzrzNrFzrzNrEzqzNqDzqzNqCzqzNqCz\ qzzqzzqzzqzzqzzqzzpzAgc9lcPdjdbqehpedpeipeepehpjio\ flufhofhofiofnnfdnfonUpngknglmgrmgmmgsmgnmfolegkdh\ jdeicbhbZgaWfaTe`Pd_McHHO } 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
