The greatest difference in today's image is the ; fact that it is only the central part of the entire parent ; almost-Julia set. I have cropped off a good part of the out- ; lying areas, but the part that remains is interesting enough. ; ; We have the same spirals and the same grossly enlarged view of ; the Mandelbrot aspect of the valley. Once again I used mostly ; the same color palette, though in today's image I cut the values ; and intensity of the stronger hues. ; ; I could hardly give just another valley scene a proper rating, ; though I did name it "Be Forever Fractal", a name that sounds a ; bit more meaningful than it actually is. ; ; The calculation time of only 3 minutes is blessedly brief. (I ; gave it the blessing myself.) I haven't heard how Paul at the ; FOTD web site is coming, but the last I heard he was recovering, ; so it might be worth a look to see if the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; is up to date yet. ; ; FL and I managed the shift from daylight time to standard in ; fine shape here at Fractal central on Sunday. We simply arose ; an hour earlier. The cats never noticed the change, except in ; the evening, when they had to wait an hour longer for their ; treats. ; ; A mixture of sun and clouds hung above Fractal Central all day. ; The fractal cats enjoyed the sun while it was out and the house ; heat when the sun failed them. The temperature of 45F +7C was ; chilly for both man and cat. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. There is no escaping ; the delay. Until then, take care, and resistance is futile. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Be_Forever_Fractal { ; time=0:03:07.19-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot2 passes=1 periodicity=6 center-mag=0/0/2.16/1/47.5/0 float=y maxiter=42000 params=88.7/0/88.7/77.5/-1.12542/0.21722/0/0 inside=0 logmap=yes colors=00086a97bA8cB9dCAeDBfECgFDhGEiHFjIGkJHlKImL\ JnMKoNMnOOmPQlQSkRUjSVgTWdUXaSY_QZXOZUMYSKXQIWOGVN\ EULCTJASH8RE6QB4P95OA5NA5MA5LA5KB5KB5KB5KB6KC6KC6K\ C6KC6KD6KD6KD6KD8KC9KBALBBNADQ9ES9FU8GW8IZ7J`6Kb6L\ d5Mf5Qb9T_DUXHUULUQOUNSUKWUH_UEbUFaUF`UF_UG_UGZUGY\ UGXUHXUHWUHVUHVULWUOWURWUVXUYXU`XUaTUaPSbMQbIOcFQc\ BSd8Ud4Wd0YdA_dKaeUceZceccfccf_ceZcdYccX`cWZcVWcUT\ cTQcRNcQLcPIcOFcNCcM9cL7cKEcJLcJScIZcIccMMc7Oc8Mc7\ Lc7Mc7Nc7O`7PY6QV6SU6UU6WU6YU6_U5aU5cU5cU5cU5cU5cU\ 7cU8cU9cUAcUCcUDZUEUUFPUHKUIFUJAUK5UM3UN3UO3UP3UR3\ US4VT4WW4YZ4Zc4`h4am4cq4ev4fw5ix5jy5lz5nz5oz5oz5pz\ 5pz5qz3rz5rz6rz8sz9tzBtzCuzDuzFuzGvzIwzJwzKxzMxzNx\ zPzzQzzSzzTzzUzzWzzXzzZzz_zz_zzazzbzzczzdzzezzfzzh\ zzizzjzzkzzlzzmzzozzpzzqzzqzzqzzqzzqzzrzzrzzrzzrzz\ rzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrz\ zrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzzrzz } frm:SliceJulibrot2 {; draws most 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), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=sqr(z)+c |z|<=9 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
