The minibrot is ; surrounded with little more than a multitude of concentric ; circles with varying degrees of chaos. ; ; The name "A Fire Deep Inside" has nothing to do with a steamy ; romance novel. It refers to the lurid fiery hues filling the ; image. ; ; The calculation time of 58 minutes is slow. The better choice ; is to view the finished image on one of the FOTD web sites. ; ; The finished image may be viewed on the official FOTD web site, ; which may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; The high definition version is available at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD site may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; Near perfect weather once again prevailed here at Fractal ; Central today, with lots of sun and a temperature of 79F 26C. ; But the peace was broken by a sizable earthquake in the ; afternoon. The quake shook up things quite a bit and cracked a ; wall in the city administration building, which had to be ; evacuated. The cats of the fractal variety ignored the quake as ; they slept and chased each other up and down the long hallway. ; The humans had another day of being busy, which is better than ; being idle. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and the visible universe is about 27.5 light years in ; diameter. But we are seeing the most distant parts in the ; positions they occupied 13.7 billion years ago, and they have ; been receding at near light velocity since then. So how far ; away are those most distant parts at the present time? I guess ; it's all a matter of relativity. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_Fire_Deep_Inside { ; time=0:58:18.64-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=-1.7444\ 51874102962814298045297578235/0.022028759872824611\ 8223664753939981/7.165866e+028/1/-30.9/0 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=18000 bailout=16 inside=0 colors=00000M00N00O01P02Q03R04S05T06U07V18W39X4AY6\ BZ7C_C9XF6VI3TL0SO0QS0P_0O`0M`0La0Id0Fk0Cq29sF6uJ3\ xL6zT9z`CzgFzoJzuIzoGziFzcDz_CzXAzT9yQ7xO6vT4u_3sd\ 1rj0yo0uo0pl0lg1id4d_6`T9YTATTDPTGMTIITLDTMATP6TQ1\ TT0_Q0dV0fc0g`0dY0aV3YS6VP9SMCOJFLIIIFLDCOA9Q76T33\ X00P00V00_00c01i06m09r0Dv0Gz0Lz0Oz0Sz0Vz3Xy9XpFYiL\ YaQYTX_Ma_GfcFg_DgXCiTAiQ9iO7jL6jI0oD0r66jFC`PIPYO\ Fg_FpXDpS4rJ0v70z90zC1zD6wGAuIFvJJxMPzOTzQYzSazVfz\ XjzYoz_lz_jx_ir_gl_fg_da_cX`cQ`cL`cG`cA`c4`c0`c0`c\ 0Yc0Xc4VcATcFScLQcPPcVMcaOc_OcYOcVPcTPcSPcPQcOQcLQ\ cJQcIPcLPcMPcOPcPPcQPcSPcTOcXOcYOc_Oc`OcaOcbOccOcd\ PcePcfQcgTchSciQcjPckPclOcmMcmLcmMcmOcmOcmPcmDcmJc\ mPcmUcmUcmUcmUcmUcmUcmUcmUcmUckUciUcgUcfUceUcdUccU\ caSc_QcYOcWMcUKcSIcQGcOCcM4cK3aI3`G3_E3XC3VD3TF3QG\ 3PI1OJ1LL3IM4FO6CP79Q07S00B00B00B00C00C00C00D00D00\ E00E00F00G00H00I00J00K00L } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
