The ; valley I chose is naturally the one centered on the negative ; X-axis, which is by far the easiest to work with. ; ; Another new formula was required to do the job, so another new ; formula was created. The formula is included at the bottom of ; today's parameter file. It does the same job as the 'More ; Slices' formula, but can calculate any power of negative-Z. I ; chose (-Z) instead of (+Z) because the fractals created when it ; is raised to powers between 1 and 2 are far more interesting, ; and the images drawn by the integer powers of (-Z) are identical ; to those drawn by the customary (+Z). ; ; In today's image I chose a near-Julia set of a Seahorse Valley ; of the (-Z)^10+C Mandeloid. A grossly magnified but reasonably ; undistorted image of the valley fills the inside of the order-10 ; Julia set. I named the image "The Tenth Valley" for obvious ; reasons. Then I rated the whole thing at a rather boring 5. I ; really cannot find too much to get excited about in the image. ; ; The calculation time of 6-1/2 minutes does border on the tire- ; some side. But perhaps the best news of the day is that the ; finished image is or soon will be posted on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; A fairly typical midwinter day prevailed here at Fractal Central ; on Wednesday, with a temperature of 36F 2C and partial sunshine. ; The fractal cats, who remained in bad moods, paid no attention ; to the outside conditions. My day was a little busy but still ; under control. The next trip to a seahorse-type valley will ; appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and live a life of ; fractal joy. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= The_Tenth_Valley { ; time=0:06:37.28-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=EvenMoreSlices passes=t center-mag=0.2845/0/0.93 params=10/0/1.5e-005/0/-0.851698/0.00144/-0.2845/0 float=y maxiter=5200 inside=0 outside=tdis logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=000XEZskFrgGrcIr_JqWKqSLqONpKOpGPpCQp8RoCSn\ FSnISmLSmOSlRTlUTkYTUdGUYGQRGKHGGUKO_NWeRckUkqXmnU\ olRqjOsgLueIwcFxaDYaM7aU8`U9`UA`UB`UC`UD`UD`UH_GK_\ 3S`C_aLgbUocbwcjsalo_mkYngWocUq_SrWQsSPtWkbViZVgVU\ fRUdNTcJTaFT`CVlWWwn`qhdlbhfXmaRqWLuRFyM9oRIeVRX_Z\ NcgEgoAjf7lY4nP5iS6eU7`W7XYDZUJ`QPaMVcI`eEffAbgGZg\ MVhRShXOhbkFclOXnXRoeKpmERZD1LCAMGJNJSOM`OQiPTrQWz\ QZrOWkMUdKSYIPRGNKFLJRTIa_HlgHwnCiW7XECOUHGhOOaVWW\ acQhkKosEvbsdTmOKh7Bc6G`5KY5PW4TT4YR3aO3eMBm_JulQm\ kWekaYkgQjmIjsBjOr6ThHX_SaQbeHmdJlcKlbMlaNl`Ok_QkZ\ RkYSkZRi_Rh_Rg`Re`RdaQcWXDTcDSfEShESkFRmFRpGRrGRtG\ WqE_oCdlAhj80nC69hJKdWU`hdXtnUuiRvePw`NwXLxSJyOHzJ\ FzFDmb_cYZUUYKPYALX0HXlNfoRarVXuZSwaNk`L`_KPZIEYH3\ YGDRRMKaVDlYCk_CibBheAgg9ej8dl8ceKb_WbTgaNraLnbKjb\ JgbIcbH`bGXbFUbEQbDNbCJbBGbACb99b85b72b84V86O88H8A\ A8C37D77DB7DF7DJ7DN7DR7DV } frm:EvenMoreSlices {; Jim Muth ; P1--exponent, P2--angle, ; P3--M center, P4--J center, z=pixel+(p4), c=p3+(pixel*p2): z=(-z)^(p1)+c, |z| < 16 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
