Please delete ; the first posting. ; ; We have another rush in progress here at Fractal Central today. ; And when time is lacking, the accuracy of the image sometimes ; suffers. ; ; The name of today's image, "Busy Busier Busiest", explains the ; lowly rating of a modest 6 points. The image las a lot of ; color action, that's for sure, but like so many current movies, ; it has too much action and not enough plot. Even the addition ; of the 'tdis' rendering fails to bring life to the moribund ; image. ; ; The only thing worth noting in the image is the central ; minibrot, shaped suspiciously like a peanut. The formula behind ; the scene is Z^(1.7)+C, which I iterated 69 levels up the ; hyperladder with the 'ident' function applied. This mixture ; creates a parent fractal that somehow reminds me of a mermaid. ; A very prominent cut-off minibrot lies south of the main body, ; with today's image located in a valley of this minibrot. ; ; The too-long calculation time of 7 minutes merely adds to the ; disappointment. But at least with this time aspect, relief may ; be found on the FOTD web sites. ; ; View the completed image online at: ; ; ; ; A high-definition rendering is at: ; ; ; ; The back FOTD's are at: ; ; > ; ; After the early morning fog cleared off here at Fractal Central ; today, the rest of the day was near ideal, with mostly sunny ; skies and a temperature of 70F 21C. The fractal cats enjoyed ; the outside conditions from the inside, but when an unwanted cat ; wandered by, the dynamic duo leaped to the window and growled ; their warnings at the intruder. ; ; Except for a slightly heated lunch time exchange of opinions ; about politics and culture, the humans had a quiet day. The ; next FOTD will be posted in due time. Until whenever, take ; care, and if only one of the thousands of claims about alien ; abduction is true, then aliens from space actually are visiting ; earth. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= BusyBusierBusiest { ; time=0:07:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+0.5231137961416107/-1.34126660456844/\ 1.53e+008/1/125/0 params=1.7/0/69/0 float=y maxiter=12000 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=6 colors=000_ldakbbkadk`fkZgkYikXmmZjkWhiUegRceP`cNZ\ aKW_IUYFRWDQX8PVBOUDNTFMRILQKKPMJNPIMRHLTGJWFIYEH_\ DFbCEdCDfEFcGGaIH_KIXMJVOKTQMQSNOUOMWPJYQH_RFlJH`S\ DP`ADh7Fi9HzBJzDKzFMzHOzIQzKRzMTjOVjQXkRYkT_kVakXc\ kZac2dk__eeVgnW`kXUiYOgZHec5d`8cZBcXDcUGbSJbQLbNOa\ LRaDOXGR_JTaLWcOYeR`gTbiWekZgn`jpclrfothqvktxmvzmt\ xzrzzzzzzzzzzfzodznzKlzdjzKiz`gzKezsozhiZYdaNZdCUf\ 2Pg9OgGOgNNgTNh_MhfMhmLkwKhsLepLblL_iMXeMUbMRZMOWN\ LSNIPNAD9DIGGMNJRUMV_P_fScm_jwVgsRdoNakJ_hFXdBU`7S\ Y9SXASXBSXCSWDSWESWFSWGSVHSVISVJSUKSULSUQMWMSUIYSE\ bQAhO5kOmlN6mNmnN7nNmoN8pN8pMmqMmrMmrMAsMmtM9wJmtM\ ArPBpRBnUClWCjZDh`DfcEdeEbhBdhDbiE`jFZkHXlIVmJTnLR\ oMPpSRuPPsNOqLMpJLnHJmFIkCGiAFh8Df6Ce4Ac29b9TZFkWF\ lVFlVFmUFmUGnTGnTGoSGoSGpRGpRMeLSWGYMAcC5aD8`DB_EE\ ZEHYFKWFMVGPUGSTGVSHYQH_PIbOauObtOcsPerPfqPgpPhoQj\ nQkmQllQmlSljUliVlhXlfZle } frm:MandelbrotBC3 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*fn1(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)+PI-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
