I named ; the image "Flowers in the Field" because of the colorful flowers ; scattered about the scene. ; ; Actually, the flowers are a mixture of minibrot basins and anti- ; minibrot hills, and it's hard to tell from the colors alone ; which is which. There is no doubt however about the large ; blossom near the center, which is a minibrot without doubt. ; A little quintic minibrot is clearly visible at its center. ; ; After not too much consideration, I rated the image at a 7. It ; has some mathematical interest and also some artistic value. ; Puting these assets together results in the total rating of 7. ; ; The calculation time of just over 3 minutes will pass in a flash ; once the colors at the top of the frame appear. The virtual ; trip to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; to view the image without the task of calculation will be even ; faster for those with a broad-band connection. Those with dial- ; up may wait an extra minute or two. ; ; Lots of clouds and a temperature of 70F 21C made Thursday a ; routine day that will soon be forgotten here at Fractal Central. ; The fractal cats forgot the day before the sun went down. They ; were more interested in food. ; ; For me the day was equally forgettable. It came and went with ; not a single memorable thing taking place. The next FOTD will ; be posted in 24 hours. Who knows what weird new fractal stuff I ; might turn up before then. Until the next time, take care, and ; when will one of the cameras that are everywhere catch a convin- ; cing picture of one of those alien space ships, which are also ; supposed to be everywhere? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= FlowersInTheField { ; time=0:03:09.37-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+0.3285156354474282/+0.038834567583711/\ 1.00143e+010/1/32.5/0 params=5/-2000000/0/0 float=y maxiter=7500 inside=0 logmap=180 periodicity=6 colors=000a_NaZM_XPYVRWTTURVTPXRNZPL`NJbMHdKFfIDhG\ BjE9lD7nB5p93r71t60vC3pH5jM7eR9_WCV`EPeGKjIEoK9pMD\ pOHqQLqSPrUTrWXsY`s_dtahtcluepugtuixrluoorlroitljr\ gjqckp_koWlnSlmOijNghNefMcdM`aMZ_LXYLVWLSTKQRKOPKM\ NJKLJHIIFGIDEIBCH89H67H45G23G01G23H34H55H66H87I98I\ B9ICBIECJFDJHEJIFJKGKLHKNJKOKKQLLRMLTNLUOLVPLXQKYR\ JZSI_TI`THaUGbVGcWFdWEeXEfYDgZCh_Ci_Bj`AkaAlb9mb8n\ c8od7pe6qe6pc7pa8o`8oZ9nX9nWAmUAmSBlRClPCkNDkMDjKE\ jIEiHFiFGhDGhCHgAHg8If7If5Jf4JiCNlJRoRVqYZtebwlfys\ iuphqngmlfijeehdafcYdbUbaQ``MZ_IXZEVYKTXKRWKTXKVYK\ XZKZ_K_`KaaEcbFecGgeHhgKeiMckP`mRZoKWqKUsKSuKPwKNx\ KKyKIzKGzKHzKHzKHzKHzKHzKHzKHzKHzcHzcHzcHzcHzcHzcH\ zcHzcHzcIzcJzcKzcLzcMzcNzcOzcPzmQzmRzmSzmTzmUzmVzm\ WzmXzmYzmZzm_zm`zmazmbzmczmczrczrczrczrczrczrczrcz\ rczrczrczrczrczrczrczrczrczzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzc\ zzczzczzczzczzczzczzczzcz } 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 ;
