[Fractint] FOTD 26-05-05 (Nothing Negative [5])

26 May 2005

      FOTD -- May 26, 2005 (Rating 5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's fully evaporated image is named "Nothing Negative", and 
there is nothing negative about it.  True, the iterated formula 
combines two negative powers of Z, but in this case two 
negatives make a positive.  The bright color palette, broken by 
only a few areas of deeper, more intense colors, is largely 
responsible for the image's joyful, almost heavenly feeling.

OK, with a rating of 5, today's might not be the most positive 
fractal of all time, but it is still good enough to be the FOTD 
for May 26, especially because nothing better came along.  The 
render time of 14 minutes is slow enough to make downloading the 
finished image the wiser choice.  The finished image is posted 
on the FOTD web site, which may be accessed at:

Heavy clouds, chilly temperatures and occasional rain kept the 
fractal cats safely inside on Wednesday.  The duo made the most 
of the unpleasant situation by sleeping on their shelf by the 
window, waking only when a bird flew near.  Today is starting 
sunny and warmer.  The cats should approve.  For me the work is 
moderate, and the next FOTD will appear in 24 hours.  Until 
then, take care, and be patient.
