[Fractint] FOTD 16-02-11 (Blue-Bluer-Bluest [6])

15 Feb 2011

      FOTD -- February 16, 2011 (Rating 6)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Like yesterday's parent fractal, the parent fractal of today's 
image is not a single large Mandeloid, but rather a scattering 
of Mandeloids of various sizes, with one main central Mandeloid 
surrounded by smaller Mandeloids.  Today's image lies in the 
detail in the vicinity of one of the smaller Mandeloids.

When I first saw today's color palette, I thought it had too 
much of an overall bluish cast, so I cut back on the blue while 
increasing the red and green.  Then I decided I liked the somber 
atmosphere created by the blueness, and returned to the original 
subdued blue version.

One would imagine that blue shades, with their higher frequency, 
would create a feeling of action, but for some reason, the exact 
opposite is true.  Fiery red hues create a feeling of hectic 
activity; blue hues create a feeling of calmness and serenity.

The name "Blue-Bluer-Bluest" simply comments on the blueness of 
the scene.  The rating of a 6 continues the streak of images 
just a little above average.  The calculation time of 1-1/3 
minutes is fair enough, but the trip to the active FOTD web site 
at:

will require less effort.

The temperature of 36F +2C here at Fractal Central on Tuesday 
was made much more pleasant by the total sun and light winds.  
The fractal cats took full advantage of the sun, spending the 
entire afternoon basking on their shelf in the southwest window.

My day was busy but still under control.  FL's day was unevent-
ful also.  The next in the apparently endless series of FOTD 
images will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and 
discover who and what you are.
