With so little effort going into its creation, I could ; give it a rating no higher than a humble 5. The coloring is so ; hasty that several colors from the GIF default palette remain in ; several registers. ; ; The image is named "PI Pie". The reason for the name is that it ; was found by the FinDivBrot-2 formula with both positive and ; negative PI entered as the parameters. ; ; The parent fractal is a distorted Mandelbrot set, well on the ; way to becoming a 'ZexPI' Mandeloid. Today's scene lies near a ; tiny, 'PI' bud at the point where the X-axis crosses the east ; edge of the main bay. ; ; The image shows a 'PI' minibrot, which is hard to distinguish ; from a cubic minibrot. The surrounding pattern is even harder ; to distinguish. The overly brilliant reds surrounding the ; minibrot are actually part of the GIF default color palette. ; ; The calculation time of 1-1/4 minutes will pass quickly. Of ; course, no guarantee of total fractal satisfaction is given or ; implied. ; ; The image is posted, completely calculated, at: ; ; ; ; A high-definition rendering is online at: ; ; ; ; The back images are available at: ; ; ; ; Today began foggy here at Fractal Central. The fog cleared by ; 9am, and the rest of the morning was sunny, but heavy clouds ; moved in during the afternoon, with threats of showers. The ; early morning low of 37F +3C rose quickly to 68F 20C in the ; afternoon. The fractal cats observed all this with disinterest, ; while the humans had an everyday day. The next FOTD image will ; be posted in the properly appointed time. Until whenever, take ; care, and is the Mandelbrot set animal, vegetable, mineral, or ; none of the above? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= PI_Pie { ; time=0:01:15.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip center-mag=+0.30458021054461/-0.00143308920906492/\ 8.461661e+010/1/97.5/0 params=3.14159265358979/\ -3.14159265358979/0/0 float=y maxiter=1800 inside=0 logmap=204 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=0009RD9i2Gk5Mm7So9YqBdsDjuFpwHvyJuvItsItpHs\ nHskGrhGqfFqcFp`EpZElXIhVLdTOaRRYPUUNXQL`NJcJHfFFi\ BDl8Co7Gj6Kf6Oa5SY4WT4_P3cK2gG2kB1o71r3lhzhgsdfl`e\ eYdZUcSQbLNaELZDKXCIUBHSAFQ9EN8CL7BJ7AG68E57B45934\ 7224112000000e0e00eee00e0eeL0eeeLLLLLzLzLLzzzLLzLz\ zzLzzz000555888BBBEEEHHHKKKOOOSSSWWW___ccchhhmmmss\ szzz00zG0zV0zj0zz0zz0jz0Vz0Gz00zG0zV0zj0zz0jz0Vz0G\ z00z00zG0zV0zj0zz0jz0Vz0GzVVzbVzjVzrVzzVzzVrzVjzVb\ zVVzbVzjVzrVzzVrzVjzVbzVVzVVzbVzjVzrVzzVrzVjzVbzhh\ zlhzqhzuhzzhzzhuzhqzhlzhhzlhzqhzuhzzhuzhqzhlzhhzhh\ zlhzqhzuhzzhuzhqzhlz00S70SE0SL0SS0SS0LS0ES07S00ron\ i`q`NtT9wNGxHNyBUz5_zAcsEfmIifMm`QpUUsOYvI`pJcmJfm\ KhmKkmLnmLpmLomSnmZmmelmlkmsfmrzmzzrzzqzzqzzqzzpzz\ pzzpzzpzzrzztzzuzzwzzyzzzzzrzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmzzmz\ zmzzmzzmzzpzzqzzmzzmzzmzzmzzzezzkzzqzzvzzszzpzzmzz\ jzzlzzmzzozzpzzfzzXzzNzzD } frm:FinDivBrot-2 { ; Jim Muth z=(0,0), c=pixel, a=-(real(p1)-2), esc=(real(p2)+16), b=imag(p1): z=(b)*(z*z*fn1(z^(a)+b))+c |z| < esc } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
