FOTD -- March 31, 2006 (No Rating) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is a colorful scene in the fractal that results when 5000 parts of Z^(epsilon+) is subtracted from 5000 parts of Z^(epsilon-) and C is added. I gave the image neither name nor rating, though it is well worthy of these fractal hallmarks. The included parameter file runs in under 6 minutes on my very old machine, a time well within the realm of reason. Those with little spare time and those with fractal-deprived machines may see the image by downloading it from the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> A perfect day weather-wise here at Old Fractal Central on Thurs- day kept the fractal cats in their best moods. If the work had been a bit less, my mood would have been better. The next FOTD fractal will likely appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and fly with the pterodactyls.
