The parent fractal, which was created with the ; FinDivBrot-2 formula, consists of a Mandelbrot set surrounded by ; much extra detail. Today's image is located in some of this ; extra detail on the positive X-axis. ; ; I named the image "Mayan Mystery". Something about it reminds ; me of the symbolic art of the ancient Mayans of Central America. ; ; Since so much of the image's worth is in the coloring, I gave ; myself a half-point bonus for my color work, bringing the final ; rating to 7.5. ; ; The calculation time of 19 seconds will pass in a flash, or at ; least as close as is possible to get to a flash. ; ; And the finished image is posted on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Friday turned surprisingly warm here at Fractal Central, with a ; high temperature of 82F 28C and partly cloudy skies. Showers ; were in the area during the afternoon, though none fell at FC. ; The fractal cats enjoyed chasing a fly that got inside. One of ; them, probably the more agile Cassie, must have caught the fly. ; It disappeared as fast as today's fractal appeared. ; ; My day was acceptable. I'll be going back to old FC on Saturday ; to take care of a few details, so don't be surprised if the FOTD ; for May 16 is a day late. Until whenever, take care, and be ; fortunate. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Mayan_Mystery { ; time=0:00:19.27-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+1.29914424038879/0/2.932468e+011 params=-13/-5000000/0/0 float=y maxiter=450 inside=0 logmap=68 symmetry=xaxis periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000000c0000c0U0000TST800V1cA0N50BzzcEgz9RPz\ sBjc8RA5FD2z00cIPK9CZg8zjfhXUUMKFBAm3rz2_61IUNpFBQ\ zFzEAY75HEiT9UJ4F9PChI9XC6M63BkBPYOqPIcHCR86DMK5BA\ 2afvYhzVi`RjROkGLl6cAZaCV`DSZFPYGMWHJVJGTKDSLAXJD`\ HGeFJiDMmBPr9Sv7Vz6XzHzvEsrBln8ej5Zf2Sc0MW9POISGRV\ 8_YBSUEKQGNSHPTIRUJTVUVTcWRmXQZkbLzoMqqNirN`tzTuzK\ wzCxz4yz5sz5nz6hz6cz7Zz7Tz8Oz8JzRKzhLzeMzcNzaNz_Oz\ YOzZMz_Kz`Jz`HzaFzbEzcCzcBzk5zr0zi6z`BzSHzJzzAzz2z\ zCzzMzzWzzezzozzlzzjzzhzzezzczzazzczzdzzfizgeziazj\ YzkUz`UzQUzFUzLVzQWzWWz`XzfYzkYzqZzvZzwVzxRzyOzzMz\ zKzzJzzHzzGzzFzzFzzEzzEzzDzzDzzCzzCOzJLzQIzWEzbBzi\ 8zoDzlIziNzfSzcXz`azYfzVlzhqzulzpgzlczgZzcVz_bzWiz\ SbzNWzIPzEOzGOzINzJNzLMzNMzOLzQLzRKzUJzXIz_HzbGzeF\ zhEzjLzrSzzTzyTzxTzxnzYUzTWzGXz4Mz3Bz1wzzUzVKzRPzH\ GzB8z5wzpczZKzHBzl8z_5zO2zCbzRQzIQzIazKJzABzV7zK3z\ Azz5jz3Vz2Fz1rzCdz9Rz6Dz3 } frm:FinDivBrot-2 { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1): z=(b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))+c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
