; FOTD -- August 17, 2011 (Rating 8.5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image is named "Low in Saturation".  The name refers to 
; the color palette, which, except for a few registers, is of very 
; low saturation.  Sometimes, less of something is actually more 
; effective than too much of it however.  In today's image, for 
; example, the almost-gray outer parts cause the few brilliantly 
; colored inner spots to appear all the more intense.  Less color 
; on the outside gives the impression of more color on the inside.
; 
; I rewarded myself a half-point for this minor example of color 
; theory.  The other 8 points of the rating are due to the 
; underlying image itself, which is a scene not all that deep in 
; the star of the period-30 elephant on the southern shore line of 
; East Valley.
; 
; The calculation time of 19-3/4 minutes borders on annoying 
; slowness.  The arbitrary precision math routine certainly does 
; give the ability to wander as deep as one wishes into the 
; Mandelbrot and Julia sets, but it takes its good old time 
; getting there.  Still a slow fractal is better than no fractal 
; at all, and isn't something worth having worth waiting for.
; 
; But time is time, and to save time, view the finished image on 
; the official FOTD web site at:
; 
;       <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html>
; 
; Or view it is high definition at:

; 
; The day began with a shroud of fog here at Fractal Central, but 
; by 9am the fog gave way to a crystal blue sky.  The rest of the 
; day featured continued near cloudless skies and a temperature of 
; 86F 30C.
; 
; The humans' day was another in a long string of days so similar 
; that it is hard to tell one day from another.  The fractal cats 
; never worry themselves about boredom however, they are too busy 
; just being cats.
; 
; The next FOTD fractal will be posted in about 24 hours.  It 
; might be late, it probably will not be early, but it is 
; virtually certain to be there.  Until then, take much care, and 
; preserve the faith that technology can save the race from self-
; destruction.
