[Fractint] FOTD 21-12-12 (DOOMSDAY!!!! [No Rating])

22 Dec 2012

      FOTD -- December 21, 2012 (No Rating)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

It's come!  It's the end of the world!  This is it!  There's no 
tomorrow!  Today is doomsday!  Armageddon!  The Apocalypse!

Nostradamus was right!

All this doom rolled into one! . . .

. . . etc.

. . . Ah nuts!

The hour has passed.  It was all a media scare tactic.  

What a disappointment!  I have seen nothing happen that could be 
considered out of the ordinary in even the slightest degree, 
except that darkness seems to be falling unusually early lately.  
I believe the precise moment of doom was 11:11am EST, or 
16:11pm GMT.  But that time has come and gone, and the world is 
still here.  The apocalypse was a flop.  The Mayans were wrong.

So let's move on to the fractals.

In today's image the strange rectangle has totally vanished as 
predicted.  Only a few traces of yellow mark the spot where it 
was last seen.  Actually, the rectangle still exists in its full 
glory -- elsewhere.  It is we who have changed our view of it 
and moved on.

The name explains itself.  If I had rated the image, it would 
have had the lowest rating in FOTD history -- most likely a 2.

Luckily, the image is very fast.  It finishes in only 30 seconds.

The finished image is posted at:

The parameter file for a second image is included with this 
FOTD.  The name "One from Doomsday" shows the spirit of the 
departed rectangle happily floating through the ethers of 
whereever good fractals go when they die.  Those who do not 
believe in spirits may bypass this second image.

The day began wet and windy, with a temperature of 50F 10C.  The 
rain ended during the morning, but the clouds remained and the 
temperature dropped fast in the afternoon, reaching freezing by 
4pm.  A few flurries of snow fell later in the day, though the 
ground remained only wet.  The fractal cat passed the day 
watching the world go by; the humans spent the day thinking of 
the holidays.

The next FOTD will be posted in around six days, around December 
27.  There is simply too much to do here at FC to keep the FOTD 
going uninterrupted through the holidays.  Until whenever, take 
care, and the next doomsday (fiscal cliff) is only ten days off.
