FOTD -- October 11, 2010 (Rating 5) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I am fully aware that today's FOTD is late. The excuse is that I got lazy. The image shows a scene on a filament extending from the north- east shore line of the large minibrot on the main stem of the Hypercomplex Mandelbrot set. I named the image "Hyper-Hyper Things" because of the strange minibrot at the center, where two Mandelbrot sets that normally coincide are beginning to separate and the two copies of the same minibrot are starting to obliterate each other -- kind of a self-destruction. The elements surrounding the minibrot are also starting to interfere and self-destruct. The rating of an everyday 5 is an admission that I put almost no effort into the image, which calculates in a speedy 37 seconds. The image may also be seen on the FOTD web site at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> where it is posted in finished form. Perfect weather continued here at Fractal Central on Sunday, with cloudless skies and a temperature of 70F 21C, which the fractal cats considered absolute perfection. My day was so peaceful that I neglected the Fractal of the Day, one of the few times this has happened. Meanwhile, FL kept busy putting her garden to sleep. (I didn't know gardens were so hard to put to sleep.) At the present time, (2:30pm Monday, Oct 11), I estimate that the next FOTD will be posted on schedule in about 9 hours. Check back then to see if it makes it. Until whenever, take care, and search for a solution to the problems of the world.
