FOTD 26-07-10 (Nothing At All [7])

26 Jul 2010

      FOTD -- July 26, 2010 (Rating 7)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Someone once told me that there is nothing to be found in 
fractals with negative exponents of Z.  Well, today I checked 
the Z^(-2)+C fractal and found nothing.  Today's image shows the 
nothing that I found.  The name "Nothing At All" confirms the 
nothingness.

Actually, the image is not a Mandeloid.  It is rotated 30 
degrees toward the oblate direction, and has quite a bit of 
stretching and skewing included.  The 5-pointed, rounded star-
like elements are something entirely new in my experience.

It's hard to give a rating to nothing, but if something were 
there, it would have rated a 7.  Assuming something actually is 
there, I rated the image at a 7 despite its blatantly feminine 
pastel-pink appearance.

The calculation time of 1-2/3 minutes will pass in a flash.  The 
flash may be avoided by viewing the finished image on the FOTD 
web site at:

A muggy cloudy morning was followed by heavy midday rain and a 
pleasant afternoon here at Fractal Central on Sunday, with lots 
of afternoon sun, lower humidity and a temperature of 81F 27C.  
The fractal cats slept through most of it.  My day was lazy.

The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take 
care, and one can never be wrong if they know what is right.
