To begin, a good part of ; the image consists of inside stuff made visible by rendering it ; with the 'bof60' option. But perhaps the most interesting fact ; is that the scene lies in an apparently uncritical part of the ; parent fractal. ; ; This parent consists of a large oval-shaped central bay with ; prominent buds on its north and south sides and half-obscured ; buds on its east and west sides. The scene lies in a blunt arm ; converging on the mouth of a partially obscured bud on the ; northeast shoreline of the main bay. ; ; The entire area is rather moth-eaten, but the 'bof60' outside ; fill hides the empty parts of the scene. ; ; The name "Case of The Blues" does not imply a case of clinical ; depression. It refers to the overall blue cast of the image, ; which required an hour's work to achieve and earns an artistic ; rating of a monumental 9. The math rating of an 8 reflects my ; surprise at finding an intact minibrot hidden in an apparent ; uncritical part of the parent fractal. ; ; The calculation time of 2-1/2 minutes is near average, but there ; is still the task of setting up and running the parameter file ; to contend with. The web sites eliminate this task. ; ; The finished image is available on the FOTD web sites at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; A mix of sun and clouds with a temperature of 86F 30C made today ; a perfect summer day here at Fractal Central. The fractal cat, ; who is already going on eleven years old, spent the day watching ; birds and sleeping, while the fractal humans spent the day ; discussing the meaning of life, or more appropriately, the ; apparent lack thereof. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted whenever it is. Tomorrow or the ; day after are the two best guesses. Until whenever happens, ; take care, and how can we be so concerned with the meaning of ; life when we don't even know for sure that the world is real? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Case_of_The_Blues { ; time=0:02:30.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=+0.49584361088/+0.37537280378/84224/1/\ -90/0 params=-1/3/-1/5/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1600 inside=bof60 logmap=yes periodicity=6 colors=000azzVtzQqzMlzGez8`z8Vz8Nz8Fu8Bm4Ac06Z03Q0\ 0KUHSgFItD8wUPyjdwheuffsegrchpbin`jmZkkYliWmgVnfTo\ 000bQpaOq_NrYLsWKtVIuTGvRFwQDxOCyMAzL9zJAxIBvHBtGC\ rFCpEDnDDmCEkBEiAFg9Fe8Gc7GbAGaCGaEGaGGaIGaKGaMGaP\ GaRGaTGaVGaXGaZGa`GabGaeGagGaiGakGamGaoGaqGasGajRx\ WfoSeeOdWPbYQa_R`aSZbTYdTXfUWhVUiWTkXSmYQnYPpZQr_R\ t`SuaTwbUycVzdWyeXxfYwgZvh_ui`tjaskarlaqmapmaomanm\ bmmclmekmfjmhimihmkgmlfmnemoemmfmkgmigmghmehmcimai\ m_jmYjmWkmUkmSlnQloOmmMmkKniJngGYeDHcB0bC6aCC`DI_D\ OZEUYE_XEdWDcUDbSDbQCaOCaMC`KC`ID_HI_IMZJNZKOWKPUL\ PSLTQMXOMXMNXKNXIOXFOXDPXBPX9QX7QZ5RZ3RZ1Ub5Xa9ZaD\ abHzzKzkOigSkdWna_pZbkVagS`cO`_L_WIZSEZOBYK8YNAXPB\ WRCVUDVWEUYFT_GSbHSdIRfKQhLPkMPmNOoONqPMtQMvRLxSKz\ TKyVMxWNwXOvZPv_Qu`RtbTscUsdVrfWqgXphYoj_ok`nlamnb\ loclpd`peQpfFpg4pg4oe4nd4mc4la4k`4j_4iY4iX4hW4gU4f\ T4eS4dQ4cP4bO4bM4aL4`K8jq } 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 ;
