It is located in the valley of ; a mandel-bud some distance south of the large minibrot that held ; yesterday's image. ; ; I named the image "Wheel of Destiny". The reason for the ; 'wheel' part of the name is made clear enough in the 'spinning' ; minibrot at the center of the image. It is up to the individual ; viewer to interpret the 'destiny' part. ; ; The rating of a 7 is once again merely average. Average and ; below-average images are easy to create, which is why we see so ; many of them. Finding the above average ones is the challenge. ; ; The calculation time of 1-1/4 minutes is a fair price for an ; average fractal. The time will pass quickly enough once the ; image gets a good start. The pre-calculated image is posted and ; available for free on the FOTD web sites. ; ; Avoid calculation by viewing the finished image on the official ; FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; High-definition variations of the image are online at: ; ; ; ; The entire FOTD library is available at: ; ; ; ; Light rain fell overnight here at Fractal Central. The day ; dawned with fog that hung around for a while, but things ; improved markedly at mid-morning, when the sun broke through. ; The sunny afternoon temperature reached a very spring-like high ; of 64F 18C. The fractal cats enjoyed the sun coming in the ; southwest window, while the humans enjoyed a day with nothing ; major going wrong. ; ; Most likely, the next FOTD will be posted soon. Until whenever, ; take care, and fortune tellers claim to be able to see into the ; future. At first hearing, this claim seems preposterous, but ; some rational scientists now claim that at the sub-atomic level, ; information can actually travel backward in time. I guess it's ; another of those curious but supposedly meaningless quantum ; coincidences, and rationalists can still consider fortune ; tellers to be charlatans. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Wheel_of_Destiny { ; time=0:01:15.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip center-mag=+1.039956082615642/-0.6873303266486848/\ 4.176185e+010/1/35/0 params=-9/-1.9/-1/-9.1/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1800 inside=0 logmap=150 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=0002002002002002002012022032042052062072082\ 08208208208207204204304405505626746856987A77BBFBA8\ BFJBD9EITAG9GN_AJMHVjAMhAWmAOCAQb9WBAY`AUDAVD5Sh6U\ yAUcAUaAU_AUyAVWAVUAVSAgyAVOAWMAWKApyAWGAxyAxyAxyi\ xyhzzewlkvlauZ_sYYqWWoVUmUSkTQiROgQLePJcOIbMHaLH`K\ G_JGZHFYGFXF7bl8ay8al9`y9`lA`yA_lB_SBZQBZPCZOCYMDY\ LDXKEXJEXHFWGFWFDgDEeDEdDEbDEaDF_DFZDFXDKW3JW5IW6H\ W8HW9GWBFWCdg9aeA_dAXcBVbBSaBQ_CMZCKYDHXD8hF9gD9fD\ AeDAeDAdDBcDBcDBbDCaDCaDD`DD_DD_DEZDEYDEYDFXDFWDTo\ pQkiOhcLeXJaRHZKkYbgX_cXX`XUXXRUWPQWMMWJIWGzUnxVlv\ VjtVirVgpVenVdlVbjVahV_fVYdVXaWV_WUYWSWWQUWPSWNQWM\ OWKLWIJWHHWFvf8se9pd9mc9kcAhbAeaAcaB``BY_BW_CTZCQY\ COYDKXDHWDz4Jx6Ju8JrAToBTlDTiFTfGbcIb`KbYLbVNlSPlP\ QlLSlIVlsblqaloalm`lk`li`lg_le_yc_yaZy_ZyYZyWYyUYy\ SYyQXyOXyLXyJWyHWyUEySHyQJyOMyLOyJRyHUyGZyFYyFYyFY\ yFYyFYyFYyFYyFXyFXyFXyXRy } 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 ;
