; FOTD -- April 07, 2004 (Rating 6)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; The work is quite heavy today, so the discussion will be short.
; 
; With today's image we return again to the parent fractal of 
; yesterday's image, where we search the north valley of the main-
; stem midget.  This parent fractal is shaped like the Mandelbrot 
; set, with the added attraction of an infinity of tiny cut-off 
; dots that surround the set, each dot containing an even tinier 
; M-set.  Not surprisingly, the area of the parent fractal nearest 
; to where the dots are located determines the nature of the 
; midgets in the dots.  Today's midget is located in a dot in the 
; east branch of the north valley of the largest midget of the 
; parent fractal.  The midget displays the type of detail found in 
; this area, though the cut-off nature of the dot in which it lies 
; is very apparent.
; 
; I named the picture "Oscar".  It is as good a name as any.  I 
; rated the image at a 6, which joins with the render time of 
; 12-1/2 minutes to give an overall value of 48.  The rendering 
; may be avoided by downloading the completed image on the FOTD 
; web site at:
; 
;        <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
; 
; With warm sun and a temperature of 59F 15C to enjoy, the fractal 
; cats had a far better day Tuesday.  Only a small bit of tuna was 
; needed in the evening to keep their spirits up.  Today is 
; starting similarly; I expect the cats will have a similar day.
; 
; For me, the work is still heavy.  But with some concerted 
; effort, it can be cleared away by late afternoon.  Until next 
; fractal, take care, and keep those fractals iterating.
