The math comes in at a ; 6, good enough, but nothing to write home about. ; ; The flower-like shapes were a result of applying the 'biomorph' ; option to the humdrum image that resulted when the image was ; generated with the outside set to the usual 'iter'. I have ; rarely used this option, since at least in my opinon, it is mere ; decoration that hides the actual fractal. ; ; The name "Chaplet of Flowers" seemed so natural that I could ; hardly resist giving it to the image. ; ; The parent fractal came about when I subtracted Z^(-2.8) from ; Z^(-1.1) before adding (1/C) on each iteration. This parent ; consists of little more than two oversized Mandelbrot buds ; without a main bay, with lots of debris strings scattered about ; the entire fractal. Today's image lies in one of these debris ; strings on the northeast outskirts of the fractal. ; ; The calculation time of 1-1/3 minutes will pass fast. It will ; pass even faster on the web sites. ; ; Ease all calculation worries by checking the finished image at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Perfect weather prevailed here at Fractal Central today, with a ; temperature of 77F 25C, low humidity and a delightful mix of ; photoshop blue skies and puffy white cottonball clouds. This ; was just what the fractal cat ordered. At lunch time, the ; fractal humans had a lively debate about weather, fate and the ; paradigm of our western culture. I yielded when FL turned ; cranky. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted within a reasonable time. Until ; reason prevails, take care, and science uses the scientific ; method to demonstrate that reason and common sense sometime lead ; to wrong conclusions. As for myself, I am still trying to ; determine if the world I think I see around me is really out ; there, or just a series of consistent images in my mind, ; (whatever my mind is). ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Chaplet_of_Flowers { ; time=0:01:20.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=allinone.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=recip passes=1 center-mag=+2.795092906612666/+0.6474369169982751/\ 1.385e+011/1/50/0 params=1/-1.1/-1/-2.8/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=800 inside=0 biomorph=120 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000C0dA2`dv2PzgAzzb0AJCZ2Vv0mz0`z0Ns0Ae40T8\ 0GbNHzzHzz4zz0zmHzTgvPZkLP`HGPG6EC02800600G00N00V4\ 0bC2kJ4sR6zZ8ze0uJ0i00Z0Cv0Zz0sv2zb4qT8VJA8AE00G22\ HH4HX6Hk6Hb4ET2AJ08A040020000000606E2HL4TT8d`AogCd\ kHTmNHoT6qZ0sd0ui0vm0ou0gz0`z6TzENzGbuGoTGz0Gz08s0\ 2VT06u00z02z0Jz0`q0sg0zZ0zP0zZ0ze0zm0zu0zzGigbTNxC\ 2d00ddZ0UUJVzb0oi0Gl00V02O0U08i0GzUUUzhEzz0zs`zzzz\ vvZzzzzzzmzzszziz000l00z00T00X60bE0ez0iP0mVfkZ0gb0\ ed0kXXoP0sJ0vC8z6Hz0Pz0zz0zz0mz0gz0dsC`kLXeXTZePRq\ LJzHCzE6zA2zG0zL0zR0zX0zb0xg0uk0qq0mv0iz0ez0bz0Zz0\ Xz0Zz0`z0bz4dzAezGgzLizTkzZmxdoviqudek`XbVNVRCLL2E\ H04E00z4zz0zz0zs0zm0ze0zZ0zR0zL0zE0z60z00z00z00z00\ u20o60g80`C0VE0NH0GJ0AL0GN2JPANRHRTPVVZ`XedZmg`ukb\ zoXzmTzkPziLzgHzeEzdAzb6z`2zZ0zX0zV0ze0zo0zq2zq6zq\ AzqEzqHzqLzqPzsTzsXzs`zsdzsgzskzsmzsvsizebzTTzGLzC\ Pz8Tu4Xm2`d0dX0gN0kG0oE0i } 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 ;
