[Fractint] FOTD 19-09-11 (Primed for Growth [7])

19 Sep 2011

      FOTD -- September 19, 2011 (Rating 7)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is named "Primed for Growth".  Don't get excited 
however.  The name refers to the fractal, not the economy, which 
is stuck in the doldrums and will likely remain there for the 
foreseeable future.

Actually, the fractal has grown as far as is presently possible, 
so it can hardly be called 'primed for growth'.  In fact, the 
magnitude of the image is already a little beyond the limit of 
resolution.

The parent fractal came about when I iterated the expression 
Z^(2.15)+C at a level 2 turns up the complex-logarithmic 
hyperspiral with the 'recip' function applied.  This parent 
appears as a Mandeloid rotated so that its main spike points 
south.  The most notable feature however is a smaller totally 
cut-off Mandeloid just west of the main one.  Today's scene is 
located deep in the East Valley of this cut-off Mandeloid.

The rating of a 7 might be more wishful thinking that actual 
fractal worth.  We have seen many superior images in recent 
weeks.

The calculation time of 2 minutes is a real bargain, so why not 
run the included parameter file and enjoy the result.

Check the finished image at:

and escape the task of running a parameter file.

Today brought a mixture of sun and clouds to Fractal Central.  
The temperature of 66F 19C was comfortable enough for the 
fractal cats, who spent an unusual amount of time watching for 
passing stray cats, none of which ever appeared.  The humans had 
a typical day, which means nothing out of the ordinary happened. 
The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours, and it most certainly 
will be an event worth noting.  Until then, take care, and if 
anyone can determine what's wrong with the world, please let me 
know.  My best guess is that there are too many people living on 
the planet.
