In today's case, a ; single strike of the key told the program to supply the ; coloring. Fractint did an admirable job. All I had to do was a ; bit of tweaking. ; ; The parent fractal, and of course the image itself, came about ; when I combined 7 negative parts of Z^(-1.1) with one negative ; part of Z^(-6.2) and added (1/C) on each iteration. This parent ; is a tremendously over-sized thing. Only a tiny part of it fits ; on the default opening screen, which has a magnitude of 0.67. ; Today's image is located inside a huge terminal ring far to the ; south-southwest of the opening screen. ; ; The rating of an 8 means I consider the image good enough to be ; worth 8 points. The name "A Plethora of Ohs" does not imply ; gasps of surprise at the sight of the finished image. It refers ; to the countless bright O-shaped circles scattered throughout ; the scene. (Actually a plethora means too much of a good thing.) ; ; The calculation time of 1-3/4 minutes is brief enough to bring ; impatience to no one but the most impatient. Total satisfaction ; for even these few may be found on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the image is or soon will be posted for instant and total ; satisfaction. ; ; Lots of clouds were overhead here at Fractal Central on Tuesday, ; though the expected rain slipped by to the south. The tempera- ; ture of 55F 13C was a bit too chilly for the fractal cats, who ; actually never worry about outdoor conditions, because they never ; have the chance to venture outside in the first place. ; ; My day was moderately busy; Wednesday should be the same. The ; next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, ; and I have thousands of photographs of fractals, but I have yet ; to see a single real fractal being photographed. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Plethora_of_Ohs { ; time=0:01:44.04-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=-132.269361791939/-60.73661716766502/\ 1.53313e+009/1/-86/0 params=-7/-1.1/-1/-6.2/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1000 inside=0 logmap=63 periodicity=0 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000AAAAABMAAAACLAAAAELAAAAGKAAFAIKBAFCLJDAH\ EOJFAJGPIHOIHUIIZIIUHIUHIUHIUHIUGIUGIUGIUGIUFIUFJU\ FJGzJcmJGAJFzJczJEzJEzJcwJDzJzCKmCKCCKCCKBBKBBKBBK\ AzcAzcAzc9zc9zz9zzzzzzzzAzzAzzAzzAzzAzzAzzAzzBzzBz\ zczzBzzczzBzzczzBzzczzBzzczzCzzczzCzzczzCzzczzCzzz\ zjCzzzziDzzzzhEzzzzgFzzzzfGzzzzeHzzzzdIzzzzcJzbKzz\ KzaLzzLzaLzzMz`MzzNz_NzzOzZOzzPzzPzXQzzQzWRzzRzzSz\ zSzzTzzTzzUzzUzzUzzVzzVzzWzzWzzXzzXzzazzYzzYzzZzzZ\ zz_zz_zz`zz`zzazzazzHzzLzzOzzSzzVzzZzzDzzEzzFzzFzz\ GzzHzzHzzIzzJzzJzzKzzLzzLzzMzzMzzNzzOzzOzzPzzQzzQz\ zRzzSzzSzzTzzUzzUzzVzzVzzWzzXzzXzzYzzZzzZzz_zz`zz`\ zzazzbzzazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } 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 ;
