This corruption causes the main ; negative spike to split into an infinitely divided series of ; straight and curved filaments. The scene of today's image lies ; close to the X-axis near the eastern side of the large distorted ; minibrot on the negative spike. ; ; I feel that the art rating of 8.5 is justified because of the ; time I put into the coloring. The math rating of 7 is justified ; by the fractional nature of the corruption exponent, which ; causes an entirely different type of distortion to appear even ; on the surface of the parent. But so far, I have investigated ; such fractals to only a minor degree. ; ; The name "Strawberry Fractal" describes the impression created ; by the colors when I first saw them. The fireball calculation ; time of only 40 seconds continues the trend of high-speed ; parameter files of the past several days. The web sites can ; eliminate the task of setting up and running the parameter file. ; ; To see the strawberry colors, check the FOTD web sites at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The official FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; is currently having technical problems, but will hopefully soon ; be up and running again. ; ; Hazy sunshine prevailed all day here at Fractal Central today, ; while the temperature started at a bone-chilling +7F -14C and ; rose to only a very winterish 25F -4C. The new fractal cat ; Jasmine spent the day at the doctor's office, where she had a ; long talk about the facts of cat life. She will be back home ; tomorrow to recover from her talk. The old fractal cat Nicholas ; was puzzled about the absence of his new playmate, and spent the ; day searching for her. The humans spent the day concerned about ; the new fractal cat's talk with the doctor. ; ; The next FOTD will be posted in around a day. Until then, take ; care, and I see that Russia has 'invaded' The Ukraine. I guess ; the free world should retaliate and give Russia the same ; penalties it gave the U.S. when the U.S. invaded Iraq. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Strawberry_Fractal { ; time=0:00:40.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=FinDivBrot-2 function=recip center-mag=-1.736098263572743/+0.00001181690185034\ /4.836219e+009/1/138.75/0 params=4.95/500/0/0 float=y maxiter=3200 inside=0 logmap=62 periodicity=6 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=00000800900A00B00C01E12G33I54K74M83QA2VC2ZE\ 1cF1gG7dHDaHIZIOWITTi5vGC7JA8L98N79P69R5AT3Ah2Bj4_\ nBcpGerLgtOprUonZliciehg`mdXrc_vhczmhzsmzzHPU7CN6D\ T5DZ4Id3IjAKkHHlNEmUBn_8omBQa6dR1rWAm`JheScj_ZohUt\ qPxyLunNscPpTRnITl7UiAVfCVcEV`GVW6fT5mQ5sM6mJZQJcN\ GgQDkTBnW8rZ5va3ydWBIbFHiJHpNHvRHpQKjPMdOOZNQTMTNL\ VHKXCJZUFcYHVaINeJEhK6RB4A32TWeUSSUOEUK1PY4Lk7Hy9K\ xBMxDPxFRwHUwJWwLYwMckLh`KmPJrEIw3Hs8GoDFlIEhNEeSD\ aXCZ`Ca_DcZEfYFhYGjXHmWIoVJqVJhWO_WSotOpsMpsLprKpr\ JpqIpqHqqFqpEqpDqoCqoBqoAqpAppApqAprAps9ps9pt9pu9p\ v9pv8pw8px8py8py8ox9ox9nx9nx9nx9nxAmxAmxAlxAlxBlxB\ kxBkxBjxBjxCjxCixCixChxDhwDhwDgwDgwDfwEfwEfwEewEew\ FdwFdwFdwFcwFcwGcwGbwGbwGawHawHavH`vH`vH_vI_vI_vIZ\ vIZvJYvJYvJYvJXvJXvKWvKWvKWvKVvLVvLUvLUuLUuLTuMTuM\ SuMSuMSuNRuNRuNRuNQuNQuOPuOPuOPuOOuPOuPNuPNuPNtPMt\ QMtQLtQLtQLtRKtRKtRJtRJtR } 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 ;
