But instead of lying just west of the main-spike ; minibrot, it lies in the minibrot's East Valley. ; ; The image does not show the bottomless pit of a minibrot, though ; it is filled with minibrots. It shows what I call an ; 'antiminibrot'. In this case a decorated shield-shaped dimple ; rising up toward the surface, with its high point near the ; center of the shield. ; ; I named the image "Scene Near a Peak" when I noticed the wrong ; way the colors flow when the image is in coloring mode. ; ; I rated the image at an 8, which means I consider it ; significantly above average, even if it does appear a bit too ; feminine for the macho fractal tastes that are so trendy in ; today's high-speed modern world. ; ; The calculation time of a fireball 40 seconds will come as a ; blessing to those caught up in the rat race. ; ; Or give your rats a break by viewing the finished image at: ; ; ; ; Then give yourself a thrill by viewing the high-definition ; version at: ; ; ; ; And remember the original FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; The morning rain ended by midday today here at Fractal Central, ; but the clouds hung tough for the rest of the afternoon, showing ; no signs of breaking until just before sunset. The temperature ; of 45F +7C was mild enough to please the dynamic duo of fractal ; cats, who grow ever harder to please as they grow older. The ; humans had a near normal day. The next FOTD will be posted in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and be thankful you were not ; born 50 years later. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Scene_Near_a_Peak { ; time=0:00:40.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MultiExp function=recip center-mag=-1749.289052499621/+0.00204820854293086\ /5.287406e+007/1/92.5/0 params=67/1000 float=y maxiter=500 inside=0 logmap=100 periodicity=6 colors=000WDeWDiXDmWCpXDqYEqZEq_Fq_Fq`GqaGqbHqbHqc\ IqdIqeJqeJqdMrdPrcSrcVsbYsb`sbcsaftait`lt`ou_ru_uu\ _xubvqdumftihsekqampYooUpnQpoLomNklOgjPciR_hSWfTSe\ VPcWMbXJaZG__DYaAXc6Wg3Wj4Xk4Yl5Zm5_m5`m6an6bp6cqA\ drDerGfrKfrNerQerTdrXdr_crbcrf`qecrefreirdlsdnsdqs\ cttcwtcytexofxjgxehx`jxXkxSlxNmxIrzBnxEkvHhtKdrMaq\ PZoSWmVSkXPi_MgbJeeFcgCajF_mIYoLWhOUhRSgUQgXOf_Mkb\ KfcIabHY`GTVFPQEKLDGGDBBD7ACDABJAAOA9U99_98d97j96p\ 13z96uH9pPClXFgdIcfLdgNehPfiRgjThkVilXjnZko`lpbmqd\ nrfoshptjqxkxulrrimofglcbi`YfXScUN`RHYOCZE3VL7RRAN\ XEJcHFiL2rMBoOJmPRjQZhRfeSjdSncTeSndQmcPlbOkaNjaLi\ `Kh_JgZIfZGeYFdXEcWDbWCbZI_aOYdUWf_UoNOxBIwELwGOwI\ QwKTvMWvOYvQ`vSbuU_tWYsXWrZUq_SqaQpbOodMnfKmgImiGl\ jEklCjmAio8ip6kl8liAnfCobDq_FrXHuWHsUIrTJpSKoRLmQM\ lPNjONiNOgMPfLQdKRcJSaITaIV`HT_HSZGRYGPXFOWFNVELUE\ KTDJSDETDITDMUDQUDUVDYVDa } frm:MultiExp { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), b=imag(p1)+0.00000000000000000001: z=z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b)+c |z| < 100000000 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
