Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
We finally have an image worth more than a rating of 5. True, the rating is only a 6, but mighty oak trees from tiny acorns grow. Who knows where this small improvement might eventually lead to.
The image is a blow-up of what was barely a speck in the blank area of yesterday's image. The name "Independence Day" refers not to an invasion from space, but to the resemblance, at least in my mind, to an exploding skyrocket like those we see so many of here in the U.S. on July 4, which is Independence day.
While I see it as some sort of sessile animal casting its young out into the world to seek their fortunes, as which I thought it rather funny, literally LOL.
