[Fractint] FOTD 27-11-05 (Curlicues [7])

27 Nov 2005

      FOTD -- November 27, 2005 (Rating 7)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's different looking image shows the open inside of a 
Julia set of the Z^(1.1)+C Mandeloid as pictured 109 levels up 
the hyperspiral.  The image consists totally of 'zmag' inside 
fill, which curiously enough makes an image both chaotic and 
orderly.

I named the image "Curlicues" because of its resemblance to 
those decorative flourishes added to fancy signatures.  The 
rating of a 7 is perhaps a bit high, but I feel I have not done 
too much exaggeration.

The coloring appears adequate even though only a small part of 
the 256 available colors were actually used.  The image is 
divided so finely that the few colors blend into an effective 
illusion of far more colors.

The render time of 7-1/2 minutes is within reason, though a bit 
slow for the hectic pace of today's active world.  To speed up 
things, the completed GIF image is posted on the FOTD web site 
at:

A partly cloudy and slightly milder day Saturday here at Fractal 
Central was still not warm enough for the fractal cats to be 
comfortable in the yard.  After spending 15 minutes outside, 
they retreated to pass the afternoon in the comfort of their 
window shelf.  A generous treat of tuna in the evening kept the 
day from being a total loss.  My day was again average.  The 
next FOTD will appear in 24 hours, which is the average time 
between postings.  Until then, take care, and wonder why.
