Until I can make more sense of the nonsense, I will ; work with the workhorse MandAutoCritInZ formula, which, if ; nothing else, does make at least a little sense. ; ; The generating expression of today's image combines 3 negative ; parts of Z^(-5.6) with 6 negative parts of Z^(-2.5) before ; adding (1/C) on each iteration, which produces a parent fractal ; beyond description. Today's image is located in a ring near the ; terminal of a filament on the northeast edge of the parent. ; ; The image makes use of several 'tricks'. To begin, it is ; partially 'evaporated'. And it has been rendered with the ; outside parts set to 'tdis' and the inside parts set to 'bof61'. ; The result is a scene that for some reason reminds me of a ; garden in the springtime, and earns the name "Spring Garden". ; ; The rating of a 7-1/2 includes a half=point bonus for the ; coloring, which required some extra effort. ; ; The calculation time of 35 seconds will pass in a flash, leaving ; no time for impatience to raise its head. ; ; Save the calculation effort entirely by surfing over to the ; official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; where the finished image is posted for instant viewing. ; ; The high-definition version is posted at: ; ; ; ; The original FOTD web site may be accessed at: ; ; ; ; A temperature of 32F 0C, thick clouds and light snow marred ; today's weather here at Fractal Central. The fractal cats took ; one look at the outside conditions and decided to spend the day ; by the heat. The humans had too much other stuff to do to let a ; measly 1 inch (2cm) of snow disturb them. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take ; care, and before we wonder when the forces of good will defeat ; the forces of evil, we should decide exactly what is good and ; what is evil. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Spring_Garden { ; time=0:00:35.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+1.364171267662479/+1.203607197877085/\ 1.314689e+009 params=-3/-5.6/-6/-2.5/0/6250/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=bof61 outside=tdis periodicity=6 colors=000`LSdIS000X5rU8lSAeQD`NGWLKQKLLIPGFSCDW80\ 00Dv4Gz6Lj2QN0W40`00S00L90DL08Z000000zP0d002004005\ 00600801905A09C0DD0IF0LG0PI0SS0bb0ll1xx4zz0pp0`Z0c\ K0A60K80U80d90p90L0000000900K00W00g00v00l00b01U04L\ 06D0961C02F02G0D24P08`02d00e00g00j006G00z60dFQFNx0\ Lz4LzDKzNKzZIzlIzxAAAAAAeU8pI0W90SA0ND0KF0GI0KK0GN\ 0KP0GS2LU5GX8DZA9bD9dG4gK0kL0nP0qS0sW0uZ0yb0ze0zg0\ xe0rd0nd0gb0db0Z`0W`0QZ2NZ5IX4I`GKvCIx9Gz5Fz4Dz2Fz\ 2Fz1Fz1Gz1Gz0Gz0Gz0Iz0Iz0Iz0Kx0Kx0Kx0Kx0Lx0Lv0Lv0N\ v0Nv0Nv0It0Lv0Nv0Pv0Sv0Uv0Wv0Zx0`x0bx0ex0gx0jx0nz0\ pz0rz0vz1xz1zz0zz1zz6vnCnbIgSQ`IXW9dP1lK0zD0tF0dF0\ QF0FF14F50FA0FF0LA4S6FZ2Qe0dn0rv0zz0zz0zz0zz0zv0vr\ 0rn0nj0le0gb1dX2`U5ZQ6WN8SKAPGCNDDKAGG8I9A4F5KK0bP\ 0zP0vP5rPDnPPlP`gPldPz`80ZGSZPzZKz`GtbDjdAbe8Wg4Nj\ 1Gl09n04p00x00t00p04n0Aj0Ge0Nd0U`0bX0jW0rS0zQ0vS1r\ S4nS8jSAeSFbSKZSNWSSSSWPS } 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 ;
