This is a zoom of Sept 11's fractal with a different palette. Here a brot, there a brot, everywhere a minibrot!
The coloring aims for a veggie mood. A resampled jpg included at http://maxitersfractalfollies.blogspot.com
JackOfTradeZ's Silicon Egg animation was great - the choice of music greatly reinforced the impressive visuals.
Idle curiousity- how long was the calculation time for the animation (not including set up time)?
