They come in all sizes, shapes and colors. They also ; enjoy doing tricks. The elephants in today's image have formed ; themselves into a wreath, a bit too early for the season to be ; sure, but decorative just the same. The name "Elephant Wreath" ; describes the scene well enough. ; ; The image is stretched more than 1000 times (1083 to be exact) ; in the horizontal direction. Such stretching is necessary to ; correct the natural distortion of the scene, which lies in an ; orientation rotated 10 degrees from the Rectangular toward the ; Oblate. ; ; The rating of a 5 might be a bit too conservative, but how much ; can a holiday wreath decorated with elephants be worth? ; ; The calculation time of 11-1/2 seconds is fast by any standards. ; Viewing the finished image on the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; is equally fast, and could be a lot more fun. ; ; A frosty morning gave way to warm sunshine and an afternoon ; temperature of 64F 18C here at Fractal Central on Saturday. (It ; reached 73F 23C at Old Fractal Central 150 miles 240km south of ; here.) The fractal cats slept through most of it. My day, ; which was occupied with a trip back to Old Fractal Central, was ; otherwise uneventful. The next FOTD will likely be posted ; within 12 hours, which will bring the FOTD up to date if it ; happens. Until next time, take care, and keep alert for that ; quantum stuff. It's lurking everywhere. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Elephant_Wreath { ; time=0:00:11.52-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot4 center-mag=-0.003041525\ 45290287/0/16.30635/1083 params=100/90/0/90/0.265/\ 0/0/0/2/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=0 logmap=48 symmetry=xaxis periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000BaMCbODcOEdQFeSGfUHgWIhYJiZKjYMkYOlXQmXS\ nWUoWZrVcuVhxUmzUruVvrVwnVzkWwhWmeWcbWUZXKWWJVVHTV\ EQUCNTAKS9IS8HS7GS6FR5DS4CQ3AO25M10K00K40K70KA0KD0\ KG4PK4UN4ZQ4cT4hW4lX6nY7oY8pZ9rZBs_Ct_Dv`Ew`FxaHub\ IrcKpcLmdNkeOheQffRcgT`gUZhWWiXUiZRj_PkaMkbKhaMe`O\ c_Q`_RYZTWYVTXXRXYOW_LVaJUcGUdDTfBSh8Rj6Rk8ShATfBU\ cDUaFV_GWXIXVKUULVUNWUOXUNYUNYUMYUMXVLXWLXXLWYKWZK\ W_JV`JVaJVbIScIQdHNeHLfGMgGNhGNiGOjGPkGPlV0PX1OY1N\ Z1M_1L`2La2Kb2Jc2Ie3Hf3Hg3Gh3Fi4Ej4Dk4Dl4Cn5Bo5Ap5\ 9q59r68s67t66u66r9BoCGlFLiHQfKVcN_pIZaPcP_mOWhNTcN\ Q_MNVMJRLGMLDIKADK79M9ANBBODCPEDRGESIFTJGULGVNHXOI\ YQJZSK_ULaVMbXNcZNd_OeaPgcQhdRifSjhTjlVkiTkfSkdQka\ Pk_NlXMlUKlSJlPHlNGlKEmHDmFBmCAmA8m77m56l66k76k86j\ 96jA6iB6iC6hD6hE6gF6gG6fG6eH6eI6dJ6dK6cL6cM6bN6bO6\ aP6aQ6`R6`R6_TD_UK_VQZWXZXcZYibVeeSaiPZlMVoJRsGOvD\ KyBHo9DqjdsleunfvT9vpghQY } frm:SliceJulibrot4 {; draws all slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), esc=imag(p5)+9 c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=z^(real(p5))+c |z|< esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
