But while yesterday's ; image was located on the northeast shore line of the bay, ; today's image lies in a blunt hump on the northwest shore line, ; just below the valley leading to the smaller bay to the north. ; ; I named the image "Bad Boy Got Caught", which has no connection ; with the appearance of the image but could raise a bit of ; curiosity as to what kind of image might be given such a name. ; ; The rating of a 7-1/2 is a little above the rating of ; yesterday's image. The curvilinear features make the difference. ; ; The calculation time of 7-1/2 minutes is slower than I would ; prefer. Here is where the web sites ride to the rescue. ; ; To enjoy the glory of the image without the inconvenience of ; running a parameter file, check the official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the finished image is posted. ; ; It is posted in high-definition at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD web site may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; After a chilly start here at Fractal Central, with a frosty ; temperature of 21F -6C, the day turned quite pleasant, with ; cloudless skies, light winds, and a high temperature of 39F +4C. ; The fractal cats, who now have two scratching posts in the ; sunlight, spent most of the afternoon in the sun. ; ; The humans, FL and I, spent the day taking things easy before ; the big holiday rush really gets going full steam. I took a ; break while I pondered who those alternate versions of myself in ; the supposed quantum alternate universes might be. They cannot ; be me, so they must be either unconscious zombies or other ; individuals. Neither option makes sense, but the things modern ; science tells us have long since stopped making sense. ; ; One thing that does make sense however is the fact that the next ; FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and ; maybe I'm the alternate version. Maybe the original version of ; myself exists in some alternate universe. Or to get totally ; metaphysical, maybe we are all alternate versions of someone ; else, and that someone else is what believers call God. No, ; that cannot be true. Belief in God is a superstition! ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Bad_Boy_Got_Caught { ; time=0:07:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=-0.1589431460312823/-1.652979911164361/\ 9.676161e+011/1/-167.5/0 params=-5/-1.5/-1.5/-4.5/\ 0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=2700 inside=0 logmap=527 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000COdCOdDOcEOcEObFOaFOaGO`HO`HO_IO_IOZJPZK\ PYKPYLPXMPWMPWNPVNPVOPUPPUPPTQPTQPSRPRSPRSPQTPQUPP\ UPPVPOVPOWPNXPMXPMYPLYPLZQK_QK_QJ`QJaQIaQIbQHbQGcQ\ GdQFdQFeQEeQEfQDgQDgQChQBiQBiQAjQAjQ9kQ9lQ8lQ8mQ7m\ Q7lR6lS6lS6lT6lT6lU6lU6lU6lW5lW5lX5lX5lY5lY5lZ5k`5\ k_5ka4k`4kb4ka4kc4kb4kd4kd4ke4ke3kf3kf3kg3kg3ji3jh\ 3jj3ji3jk2jj2jl2jl2jm2jm2jn2jn2jo2jo1jp1ip1iq19BJ8\ FH8IG7LF7OE7RD6VC6YB5`95c85f74k64m53r43p33z22r12p1\ 2j12h12c11_11X11T11P01M05K30I00H00G00G00H076h69g5C\ b4BY49T38R26P24M18K01I59G85EBBCEBAHC8EF4T1_S4XW4VU\ 4TR3RP3ON3MK2KI2IG2FD1DB1B919606404202zEac9PH4CfMz\ bKtZInVGhREcNCYJASF8MB6H74B325yR1nM0dI0VD0K90A40B6\ K95H84F63C53A427215102q2Ij`JsaqSJRUFLMBFF7A735UYmR\ VhPSdMP`KMXHJTFHPCEKABG78C558224JjCHkBGlAEm9Kn8Ko7\ Up6Uq6cr5ms4mt3mu2mv1mw0mxXzzSzzNzzIzzEzz9zz4zzVzz\ SzzPzzNzzKzzIzzFzzCzzAzz7 } 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 ;
