I named it "The ; Galactic Halo" even though the actual galactic halo is made up ; of globular clusters instead of fractal rings. (But then, could ; globular clusters be merely a different aspect of fractal ; rings.) ; ; The rating of a 7 is close to average. The rating might have ; been a half-point higher if the colors did not remind me of ; stuffed olives, the most disgusting food I ever tried to eat. ; ; The calculation time of under three minutes should bring fidgety ; impatience to no one. Those who dislike running parameter files ; can try one of the following web sites, where the finished image ; will soon be found. ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Before long, my own web site should be added to the above list. ; ; Brisk winds, scudding clouds, snow flurries, a little sunshine ; and a high temperature of only freezing made Wednesday here at ; Fractal Central less than ideal. The fractal cats kept busy by ; sleeping. ; ; My day was quite busy with holiday stuff, though I still found ; time to dredge up a fractal. The next fractal will be posted in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if the outer world isn't ; real, then what is real? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= The_Galactic_Halo { ; time=0:02:50.38-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip float=y center-mag=+1.633449982985433/+18.85948164243031/\ 7.437228e+009/1/-30/0 params=-20/-5.2/-22/-1.2/0/\ 125/0/0 float=y maxiter=2400 inside=0 outside=real periodicity=0 colors=000mMzoMzuRzrOzpMznKzlIzjGzhE\ zfCzdAzb8z`6zZ4zY5zY6zX6zX7zW7zW8zV8mV9mU9mUAmTAmT\ BmSBcSCcRCcRDcQDcQEDPF6QE9QECRDFRDISCLSCORAPSCQTEQ\ UFQUHRVJRWKRWMSXNSYPSYRTZST_UT_VU`XUaZUa_VbaVccVcd\ WdfWegWeiXfkXglXgnYhoYiqYisZjtZkvZkwZbfbUReMBhNDiN\ EiNGiNHiNIiNKiNLjNMjNOjNPjORjOSjOTkOVkOWkOXkOZkO_k\ OakOblOclPelPflPglPilPjmPlmPmmPnmPpmPqmNtqPrmRpjTo\ gUmcWk`YjYZhV`fRbeOdcLeaHg`EiZBlZ5kY7jY8iY9hYAgYBf\ XCeXDdXFcXGbXHaWI`WJ_WKZWLYWNXVOWVPVVQUVRTVSRZWSXU\ SVTSTSRRRRPQQNOPLNPJMOHLOFKNDJMBHN9GN7FO5EO3DO2CN4\ BM5BL6BK7AJ8AJAAJB9JC9JD9JE9JF8KH8KI8KJ7KK7KL7LM4K\ M7JL9IKCHJEGIHFHJEHMDHOCIPCJQCKRDMSEOTFQUISVKUWMWY\ OYWO_XQa_Sc`UeaVgbXjcYmd_oe`rfbtgcvhexifzjjzjpzjvz\ j`WjZOjYHzW9zU0zV2zW3zW4zX5zY6zY7zZ8z_9z_Az`BzaCza\ DzbEzcFzcGzdHzeIzeJzfKzgLzgMzhNziOzkOziPzhQzgRzfSz\ eTzdTzSLzULzWLzYLz_LzaLzcLzeMzgMziMzkMz } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(((-a*b*g*h)^j)+(p4)), k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
