The scene of today's action ; lies in the west branch of the valley leading to the large bud ; on the north side of the grossly enlarged, violin-shaped main ; bud of the parent fractal. ; ; The generating expression is actually the same one that created ; the previous few days' images, though I simplified things a bit ; by changing real(p3) in the formula to zero and real(p1) and ; real(p2) to 5. ; ; The image is unusual in the amount of detail filling the ; otherwise commonplace elements surrounding the center minibrot. ; ; Since the violin theme is beginning to wear a bit thin, I could ; rate today's image no higher than a 7.5, which, perhaps a bit ; liberally, includes a half-point bonus for the coloring. ; ; The name "A Study in Purple" was inspired, if it can be called ; inspiration, by the purple elements in the image. ; ; The calculation time of 4-1/2 minutes borders on slowness. But ; the web sites once again ride to the rescue. ; ; The finished image is posted at: ; ; ; ; The high-definition version is at: ; ; ; ; The classic FOTD web site is at: ; ; ; ; After an inch or so of wet snow overnight, today dawned sunny ; but chilly. The sun continued all day, mixed at times with a ; few clouds, while the temperature settled at a not-too-bad 41F ; +5C. The fractal cats spent the day taking it easy and asking ; for food, while FL spent the day in the never-ending task of ; re-arranging furniture. I simply spent the day. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and I wonder who is really behind the scene, running the ; world. I hear that the Annunaki from Sirius C might really be ; running things.
