The rating of a much- ; above-average 8 is fully justified, though a full point of the ; rating is earned by the coloring. ; ; The name "The Hidden Jewel" refers to the scene in general. ; ; The calculation time of 1 minute is very near FOTD average. ; ; On its surface, the parent fractal is a normal Mandelbrot set, ; but in its depths things start to go awry. Today's image is ; located near the edge of the main negative spike, at the very ; un-exceptional point of -1.71. At this point the single spike ; has fractured into an infinity of fractal spikes, which somewhat ; resemble the train-tracks in the Enola rail yards, located about ; 75 miles or 120km south of FC. ; ; The image may be viewed in its full glory by running the para- ; meter file included below. An easier way to view the image is ; to go to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and enjoy it in its fully finished splendor there, without the ; need of calculation. ; ; Absolutely perfect weather continued here at Fractal Central on ; Saturday. Not the slightest trace of cloud marred the blue sky, ; while the temperature settled at a near-perfect 82F 28C. The ; fractal cats gave up on the cricket and spent the day watching ; for stray cats intruding in their yard. (They seem to think ; it's their yard, even though we never let them go out there.) ; ; My day was uneventful, while FL busied herself in the gardens. ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and I wonder if they have fractals and internet in the hot ; place down below (AKA hell). If not, then I don't want to go ; there for a single day, much less for all eternity. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= The_Hidden_Jewel { ; time=0:00:59.99-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=-1.716704373310237/+0.00012150036035313\ /7.451509e+011/1/170/0 params=2.5/10000/0/0 float=y maxiter=1800 inside=0 logmap=114 periodicity=6 colors=00000M00O01Q02S03U04W06Y08_0Aa1Cc4Ee5Gf7Hg8\ IhAJiBKjDLkFMlGNmIOnJPoLQpMRpOSqQUqSWrUYrW_sYat_du\ ahvclwepxgryivzlzzrzztzzrvvvrrrmmmhhhcccZZ`UUYPPVK\ LSILPGKMEKJDJGCJDBJAAH79F48D17B5BAKF9UJ8cN7mW6wc5z\ c8vhArcCmUFhQHcPJ`OMbOOcNQeMTgLVhLXjKZlJamIcoIegbf\ dfj`knXprUtuYkaabJcdIefIggIiiIkjImlInmHpoHrpHtrHvs\ HxuHyvHulRrb`oTjlKsmLrnLqnLpoMpoMopMnpNmqNmrNlrOks\ OjsOjtPitPhuPguPguOhuOhuNiuNiuMjuMjuLkuLkuLkuKluKl\ uJmuJmuInuInuInqGlnEjkDhhBfeAebFf_JfXNfURfRVfOZfLb\ fIffFjfCnfArfEneHjeKfeNceR_dUWdXSd_PdcLcfHciDclAch\ ukfnhdhebbbaX_b`YccWdfVeiTelRfoQgrOhuwhxweuwcswaqw\ _owamwcmwemwfmwhmwjmwlmwmmwomwqmwrmznmzkmzhmzdmzam\ zZmzVmzSmzPmzLmzImzFmzBmz8mz5mz2mz6mzAmzEmzHmzLmzP\ mzSmzWmz_mzbmzemzhmzkmzimzgmzezlczkazj_ziYzhWzfUze\ SzdQzcOzbMzaKz`Iz_EzaBzc8ze5zg2zhLzWbzKazN`zP`zR_z\ T_zVZzYYz_YzaXzcXzeWzhVzj } 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 ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
