FOTD -- August 07, 2009 (No Rating) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Thursday was the busiest day in several months here at F.C., and Friday promises to be a repeat. I have no time for a discussion of today's image, which I leave to speak for itself. But I will go so far as to reveal that it is a spiral. The name "Around the Corner" means nothing. The lack of a rating means I don't think it deserves one. The calculation time of 4-1/4 minutes may be avoided by viewing the finished image on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> Thursday turned into a perfect day here at Fractal Central, with blue skies, puffy clouds and a temperature of 79F 26C. The fractal cats spent the day on their best behavior. My day was very busy. The next FOTD is likely to be late, but it will eventually appear. Until then, take care, and think infinite.
