The default screen view of ; this parent is little more than a field of unorganized blobs ; forming a hint of a valley, but two full outzooms reveals a ; fully formed but quite distorted Mandeloid, with a ring-lined ; filament extending southeast to where it joins a large ring. ; Today's scene, with its abundance of sharp bright spikes, lies ; near the point where this filament joins the large ring. ; ; Since the season is one of fright, and sharp things such as ; daggers and axes are trendy at this time of year, when I saw the ; scary sharpness in the image, I named it "Fright Night". ; ; With a modicum of coloring effort going into the image, its ; rating is worth an honorable 8. The math worth remains a 6, ; since the MandAutoCritInZ formula has been doing its thing for ; over a decade, and has long since lost its math impact. ; ; The calculation time of 4 minutes is slow, no denying it, but ; once again the web sites are on the job, with not only the ; original image but assorted variations as well. ; ; The finished image is available on the official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; which may soon be re-designed with new and greater features. ; ; The image with additional variations is available at: ; ; ; ; and also at: ; ; ; ; and: ; ; ; ; Today brought a mix of sun and clouds to Fractal Central, while ; the breeze from the northwest and temperature of 54F 12C added ; a proper end-of-October atmosphere to the scene. The fractal ; cats, still interested in getting accustomed to each other, had ; little interest in the outside conditions. The humans had a ; reasonably quiet day. ; ; The next FOTD will likely be posted in about one day, but ; possibly two days. Until next time, take care, and they can't ; put it on the news shows if it isn't true. Or can they?... ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Fright_Night { ; time=0:04:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+96.84710700506818/-56.0569704879051/\ 3.965998e+009/1/-32.5/0 params=3.5/-1.1/0.5/-5.5/0\ /0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 logmap=320 periodicity=0 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=00000M00M00M00N00N00P00P00R00R00S00S00U00U0\ 0U00U00U00U00U00U30U30U30U30U40U40U40U60U60U60U90U\ 90U90UB0UB0UB0UB0UC0UC0UC0UC0SA0R90P60N60M30K00I00\ G00E00B006003000000000zzzzzzzwztvyrqrmmmikieeecccR\ RRMMMGGGBBB444000000hzz_zzSymMomGcc9Sc0GU0IWBKY9GV\ 6ES4CP3BN39K06G04C00B006003000000000000azvYoiPdX4R\ K0630hz0`z0Ut0Mi0EX04K0030pi0ld0h`0cY0_U0VP0RM0MG0\ GC0B6040000000_ltXhpUclR`hNXcKU_GPVCMR9GM4BG06B004\ 000000ntyMRU0cs0bYoSzkPzgMwbIrYGlUCgP9`K6VE3P90I30\ B003000zN0zK0zG0vC0n90d40V00M00B00000Pi3Mc0I_0EU0B\ P06K03C0060000000zri`PKb00X00S00N00I00B00400000000\ zBgz6`z4Xz3Sz0Nz0Iz0Bz04z00z00zl9zh6zd4zPgr0lc0rU0\ wN0zE3z64z06z06z04z64zE4zM4zS4zYPzcPyk3vpcsvcozclz\ chzcdzcbzc`yr_orYgrXXrVMrU9rS0zR6zPEzNMzMSzK_zIdzG\ zzEzzCzzBzz9zz9zz9zz9zz9zz9zz9zz6zz6zz6zz6zz6zz6zz\ 6zz4zz3zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0zz0 } 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 ;
