The parent fractal is a distorted Mandelbrot ; set facing east, surrounded by various holes and fields of ; debris. This M-set has a string of holes extending from its ; East Valley, (which is on the west side), out toward the west, ; where it runs into a larger underlying fractal that is mostly ; hidden, and dissipates. ; ; I named the image "Eight Bells and All's Well" because of the ; eight bell-shaped holes surrounding the central minibrot. The ; rating of a merely average 5 shows that I am not very impressed ; by the image. ; ; This time, the 'fmod' outside option came to the rescue, adding ; just enough to the scene to enable me to grant it the honor of ; being declared FOTD for a day. ; ; The calculation time of just over 4 minutes may drag for those ; not totally fascinated by the magic of numbers. For these ; stragglers I suggest a trip to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the finished image may be viewed in all its pristine glory. ; ; The image is available in hi-def at: ; ; ; ; The 14-year-old original web site is at: ; ; ; ; Wednesday began with rain here at Fractal Central, making the ; fractal cats turn sulky, but by mid-morning the rain ended and ; by midday the sky brightened. A few glimpses of afternoon sun ; brought a temperature of 55F 13C and a glimmer of hope for ; better days to come. ; ; Another typical day passed uneventfully in the human department. ; After last evening's downpour, FL had a bit of garden repair to ; do. I took it as easy as possible, though for me this means far ; from being idle. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. ; Until then, take care, and let's fight the budget deficit by ; cutting spending on someone else's favorite project. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= 8_Bells_All's_Well { ; time=0:00:59.31-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.1684225851772538/-1.784860150073554/\ 9.267269e+010/1/35/0 params=4e-007/11/0.4/2/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=2600 inside=0 outside=fmod proximity=4 periodicity=6 colors=000hIcjJZlLTnMOpOJrPEuP8sQ9rRApSBoTBmUClVDj\ WDiWEgXFfYGdZGc_Ha`I`aIZbJYbKWcLVdLTeMSfNQgNPhONiP\ LiOMiPMiQMiQNiRNiRNiSNiTOiTOiUOiUPiVPiWPiWPiXQiXQi\ YQiZRiZRi_Ri_Ri`SiaSiaSibSibUecWbdY_e_WfaTgcQheMig\ JjhHliGkjGjjGikFhlFglFfmFfnEenEdoEcoEbpDaqDaqD`rD_\ sCZsCYtCXtCXrYTqsPknRfjTafVWbXRZZMV`GRbBNd4Kd6Je7J\ f8IfAIgBIgCHhDHhFHiGGiHGjJGkKFkLFlMFlOEmPEmQEnRDnT\ DoUDpVCpXCqYCqZBr_BraBsbAscAtdAtbBraBp`Bn_BmZCkYCi\ WChVCfUCdTDcSDaRD_PDZOEXNEVMEULESKEQJFOHFNGFLFFJEG\ IDGGCGEAGD9HB8I97J86K65L44M35N55P76R96TB6WD7ZF7aH8\ dJ8gL8jN9mP9pR6rS9sTCtUFtVIuWLvXOvXRwYUxZXx__y`by`\ axaawaawa`va`va`ua_tb_tb_sbZsbZrbZqbYqbYpcYpcXocXn\ cXncWmcWmcWldVkdVkdVjdUjdUidSjcUidVheWgfXggYfg_eh`\ eiadjbcjcckdblfamgamh`ni_ojZpkZpmYqnXroXspWsqVtrVu\ tUvuTvvTwwSxxRyyRyxQxxPwwOwwOvvNvvMuvMtuLtuKstJstJ\ rtIqsHqsHp_Ep`CxbErdFmfHh } 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 ;
