I went quite deep ; into the parent before I found today's scene, which lies in a ; much larger but similar scene. ; ; I named the image "Shifting Gears" when the scattered order-31 ; minibrots reminded me of a fantastic nest of crushed cogwheels. ; ; The rating of 7-1/2 reflects my opinion of the true worth of the ; image, which is held down somewhat by the similarity of many ; recent FOTD images. ; ; The calculation time of a mere 30 seconds makes running the ; included parameter file at least a breeze if not a hurricane. ; ; And this minor inconvenience of calculation may be avoided by ; viewing the completed image on the official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A high-definition rendering is online at: ; ; ; ; All the past FOTD images and discussions may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; The day began cloudy here at Fractal Central. A brief light ; thunder-shower passed over at 11am, followed by a sunny ; afternoon with a temperature of 68F 20C. The fractal cats were ; pleased by the warmth, but would have preferred to have more ; of the sun coming straight in the windows. ; ; The humans, who have heard more than enough over-hyped media ; talk about racial hatred recently, were left wondering what the ; real problem is. The next FOTD, with no fractalish hatred ; involved, will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, ; and no problem will ever be solved until people are willing to ; see the true nature of the problem. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Shifting_Gears { ; time=0:00:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=JulibrotMulti2 function=recip center-mag=-1.747579800976048/+0.0016262212467862/\ 3.1326e+012/1/50/0 params=31/1e+040/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000W4ES3AP36TCHWLSZUbabmNMxLQuJUrIXoG`lEdiD\ gfBkcKna9hZAfW6XT5RQ4LN3GL7JQBIUFPZISbMVgQYkU`pXbt\ nqzsnzsrzsrzkmzZSfMJgAAhFGjKLkORlTWmY`oaUpfUqUUrlU\ dUURlUPUdNj_LUUJUOHgJGjPMUVRU`WUUaUUfUUkUUpcUrUUtf\ FufNwaKcQIzbCJaAI`HH_Ab`4FYAMZ3S_3Y`2dX2jT2pV5iX7b\ ZAW`CQbFJdHCeJ6WHJNGVEFg5EsAGmEIhJKcNMZSOUWQP_RKYO\ PWMUUKZTHbRFgPDlOBpQDmRFjTGhUIeVKbXL`YNYZOWb_Iej4b\ b5`V5YN5WF5U85RVQOpjLnkJlkGklEilBgm9fm6dn4cn8ahC`b\ FZXJYRNWLQVFUT9XS3`ZUdesddmdchdbcdbZdaUd`Pd_Kd_FaU\ L_PRYJWWEaU8gS3lR7eRA_RDTQGNQJGQMARTKS_UTfcb`alV_u\ PZdaSOmL8yFV7lU9mUAmTCmTDmTEmSGmSHmSImIEOMFQPFRTFS\ WFT_GVbGWfGXiGYiLXjQXjVXkTUkSSlRQlPOlOMmNJmLHnKFnJ\ DnHBoG8oF6pD4pC2pB0fH1XM1NS2DX2EW6FW9GVDHVGIVJJUNK\ UQLTUMTXNT_OScPSfQSiTVjWXkZZka`ldblgemjgmminpknsmo\ voounnunnunnunnumnumnumnumnolljkkeji`jhWigRheMgdHg\ cGfdFeeEdfDcgCbgBahA`i_5J } frm:JulibrotMulti2 {; draws all slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p3*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p3*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), aa=-(real(p1)-2), bb=imag(p1), c=p+flip(q)+p4, z=r+flip(s)+p5: z=(bb)*(z*z*fn1(z^(aa)+bb))+c |z|< 6 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
