; FOTD -- November 22, 2013 (Rating A-6,M-5)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image lies in one of the two East Valleys of the parent 
; fractal that is generated when the expression Z^(1.85)+C is 
; iterated 0.5094505 levels up the complex hyperladder.  The level 
; is set to such a critical value because at this particular level 
; the parent appears to have X-axis symmetry.  The appearance of 
; symmetry is false however.  It exists only on the surface.
; 
; The art value of the image, with its overbearing minibrot, rates 
; only a 6, and the math rates only an average 5.  All is not lost 
; however, for the minibrot is surrounded by smaller detached 
; minibrots just waiting to be explored.  I will check some of 
; these smaller minibrots in the next few FOTD's.
; 
; The name "A Passing Minibrot" refers to the way I found the 
; minibrot.  At first I passed right by it, but then I returned to 
; have a second look.  After a few minutes I saw enough there to 
; make it today's FOTD.
; 
; The calculation time of 2-1/4 minutes will pass fast enough, 
; though it may still be a bit too slow for such a mediocre image. 
; Mediocrity can be avoided however by checking the FOTD web sites.
; 
; The calculated image is posted at:

; 
; Thick clouds and occasional light showers held spirits to a low 
; level here at Fractal Central.  The temperature of 50F 10C was 
; mild enough, but was wasted by the clouds.  The fractal cats 
; seemed cranky this afternoon, possibly due to the weather.  The 
; humans had a very average Friday.
; 
; The next FOTD will be posted in two days, on November 24.  Until 
; then, take care, and pay no attention to those who say we are 
; becoming too dependent on technology and are even becoming 
; addicted to it.  Even higher technology will solve all our 
; problems and put the doomsday prophets in their proper places.
