[Fractint] FOTD 07-04-14 (The Past Returns [A-6,M-5])

8 Apr 2014

      FOTD -- April 08, 2014 (Rating A-6,M-5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a scene in the Z^(3.05)+C Mandeloid as it 
appears at ground level of the hyperladder with no function 
applied.  The prominent minibrot at the center is a near exact 
copy of the parent fractal, which has the same orientation.  
Today's image is located in the blunt northern branch of the 
valley leading to the eastern bud.

I named the image "The Past Returns" because it is the kind of 
stuff I did long ago when I was just discovering fractals.  
(Strangely enough, I am still just discovering them even today!)

The art rating of a 6 and math rating of a 5 shows that the 
image is a rather routine one, though the fireball calculation 
time of 30 seconds will take a lot of sting out of the task.  
And as always, the web sites are ready to take all the sting 
from the calculation.

The image may be viewed on the FOTD web sites without the job of 
calculating it.  The web sites are at:

Dark clouds and blustery winds spoiled the day here at Fractal 
Central.  A little sun did manage to break through in the 
afternoon, but it was too little and too late.  The temperature 
of 55F 13C would have been fine had it not been for the clouds 
and wind.  The fractal cats had a relatively quiet day, except 
for a friendly tussle they got into around lunch time.  The 
fractal humans had a normal day of wondering what has gone wrong 
with the world in the 21st Century.

The next FOTD will be posted in roughly 24 hours.  But this is 
not etched in stone, so do not be too disappointed if it does 
not appear.  Until whenever, take care, and the latest breaking 
news on the missing airliner is that there is nothing new to 
report.
