FOTD -- May 05, 2004 (Rating 6)
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
This will be a short discussion. I am falling behind in my work and must get caught up before I find myself in another morass.
Yesterday's image was a meditation on the negative golden ratio; today's is a meditation on the negative square root of 2. The parent fractal is another grossly oversized thing with more places to investigate than could fit in an infinite universe. (oxymoron noted)
Today's image was rendered with the outside set to 'tdis', which explains the name "The Total Distance". The inside was set to 'fmod' to fill in some holes.
Since IMO the image is a bit above the uninflated FOTD average, I rated it at a 6. The render time of just over 6 minutes gives an overall value of 98.
Rendering can be eliminated entirely by downloading the finished image from:

A sunny but chilly day on Tuesday limited the cats' outdoor time to under two hours. But this was enough to keep their moods good. Today is starting sunny and warmer, but showers are possible later. We'll see how things go for the duo.
For me, it looks like a normal day. Except for the left-over sawdust, that fallen limb has been disposed of. Until next FOTD, take care, and be at ease.
