I once again chose ; East Valley (in this case a west valley) of the largest midget. ; ; At first I saw spider webs in the image, but we had already seen ; too many spider webs. Changing my mind set, I then saw fishing ; nets, and gave the picture the simple descriptive name "Fractal ; Nets". The image rates a 6. It's a good enough fractal, but ; the entire 'network' theme is being overdone, creating nascent ; boredom and holding down the rating. ; ; The render time is 1/2 second short of 10 minutes. This time is ; appropriate for such a moderate quality image, and those without ; the 10 minutes to spare may still enjoy the image by downloading ; it from Paul's FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The Thursday weather here at Fractal Central was perfect, making ; the cats perfectly happy, as happy as only cats can be. Today ; is starting a bit warmer, but the duo should not mind. For me, ; the work is moderate and the fractals keep coming. The next one ; will arrive in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and it's some- ; times hard to let go. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Fractal_Nets { ; time=0:09:59.50--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC2 passes=1 center-mag=+1.74949246694105800/-0.000598456658569\ 62/1.167956e+010 params=2.00005/0/62830/0 float=y maxiter=6000 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=000NOzQNvSMrVLoXLk_KhaJdcJabMcbOdaQfaSg`Ui`\ Wj_Yl__m_bnZdpZfqYhsYjtXlvXnwXpxWktWgpWbmWZiWVeWQb\ WMZWIWYLTZNQ_QN`SKaVHbXEc_Bda8ec5Zb8TbBMbEGbHAbKDc\ MFdOIdQKeSNfUPfWSgYUg_XhaZicaiecjgehigfghcei`cjYak\ V_lRYmOWnLUoISpFQlGPhHOeHNaIMZILVJKSKJOKJLLIHLHEMG\ ANF7NE3OD0OD1MB2LA2K83J74I54H4BIAIJFPKKWLPbMUhNZdR\ X`UVXXTT_SQbQMeOIhNEkLAnJ7qIAZGDGFFHIHIKIJMKKOMLQN\ MTPNVROXSPZUQ`VRbYDR`0Fa8FbFFbNFcUFcaFdhFdoFemGekG\ eiGfgHfeHfcHgaIg_IgYIgWIiUIjRIlPImNITwaSx_RyYRyWSu\ _TrbUoeVkhVhkWenXaqYZtYWw_YsaZob_kd`gfacgc_idWkeSl\ fOngKohGlcGi_GfWGcSGaOGSeCJw8NAzV9xb9wj8vr8uy8tmCl\ aGeQKZENSFPRGQRGRRHTQHUQIVQIXPJYPJZPI`RHaSHbUGcVGe\ XFfYFg_Eh`DibDkcCleCmfBnhBoiDkgFheHecJbaLZ_NWYPTWR\ QUTNSVJQXGOZDM`AKb7IeDMgIPiOSlTVnZYpc`mdekdihenfer\ devbhqakl`mg_pbYsYXuTWxOVzKTuLRqLQmMOiMNdML`NKXNIT\ NGPOFKODGOCCPA8P94PNSwNQy } frm:MandelbrotBC2 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*floor(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
