It is a scene in an elephant trunk on the south shore ; line of East Valley of a Mandelbrot set somewhat corrupted by ; Z^(1) energies. The infection, (we might call it a birth ; defect), results in a M-set with a main bay more circular than ; usual and the buds, which are smaller than expected, shifted ; around toward the negative X-axis. ; ; When the imag(p1) parameter is decreased, the infection in the ; parent M-set grows stronger, until the entire parent ultimately ; degenerates into the empty circle that would be expected from ; iterating Z^(1). But it shows some interesting convolutions on ; its way to becoming an empty circle. I might check a few of the ; scenes in this degenerating fractal in the future. ; ; Today's image is named "Blazing Trunks". The two narrow ; floating elephant trunks inspired the 'trunks' part of the name. ; The inspiration behind the 'blazing' part of the name will have ; to wait until the next FOTX. ; ; Today was just another 'back to work' day here at Fractal ; Central. The weather was near perfect, with a temperature of ; 84F 29C, low humidity, and a photoshop blue sky filled with ; cottonpuff cumulus clouds. Now that FL and I are starting on ; the slowdown path to retirement, the phrase 'back to work' does ; not imply as much work as it did in the past, but the 7-day ; cycle of a week still figures prominently in the daily routine. ; The fractal cats had a routine day of watching for unwelcome ; cats and teasing pigeons. ; ; The next FOTX will be posted when I get a round tuit, probably ; within two days. Until then, take care, and I wonder which is ; more reasonable -- holding faith that God exists or holding ; faith that the objective world is real. As I see it, the ; evidence is equally ambiguous in both cases. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Blazing_Trunks { ; time=0:28:35.22 SF5 at 200MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+0.4701823855889835/-0.0047739039165443\ /2.6e+09/1/17.5/0 params=1/1.3/0/0 float=y inside=0 maxiter=5000 inside=0 outside=tdis colors=000zzxTzxzzy`zyzzyzzveztzzqezoezmzzjezhzzfj\ z`ozVtzPyzJuzGqzEmzCzzAkzDzzGkzJzzMkzPzeSkzVzzYkz`\ zzchzcfzcczcazcZzcXzcUzcSzcPzcNzcKzcIzcFzcDzcB_cAX\ `9UY8RV8OS7LP6IM6FJ5CG49D46A35724423Etlk110000000x\ onqihkdce_Z_VUUQPOKKIFFCAA655W2JV1IU1HT1HS1GR1GQ1F\ zzZzzazpdzlgtmjcleRkaRjYSiUThQTgLUfHVeDVd9Wc5Wc1Rd\ 2Md2Hd3Ce37e42e4CZELSOULYbEfVE_OEUPGRQHPRINScLcKJU\ cHmMFWczmOBYczzQ7_c5zS3ac1zS3bczzQ5bczzP8cczzNBccz\ zLDcczzKGdczzIJdHzmHLcIzfIQaIz`JV_JzZJZYJaXKcWKeVK\ hUcoRenOgmMhkJjjGliDmgAof7qe5rd2kP0dAzbDzaFz_HzZJz\ XMzWOzVQzTSzSVzQXYzZ`z`XzeUziRzmOzqzzuzzrzzozzmzzj\ JzhJzeJzcLz_MuXNtUOtRPsNQsKRrHSrETzBRzCQzCPzDNzDMz\ DLzEJzEIzFHzFFzFEzGDzGCzGBzFAzEAzD9zC8zB8zA7z96z85\ z75z64z53z42z32z21z10z0nzXlzWkzVjzUizTgzSfzSezRdzQ\ bzPazO`zO_zNYzMXzLWzKVzKTzJSzIRzHQzGOzGNzFMzELzDJz\ CIzCHzBGzAEz99zvDzvHzwLzw } frm:FinDivBrot-2 { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1): z=(b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))+c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; https://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
