FOTD -- May 14, 2009 (Rating 6) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I named today's image "Counting Troubles" because I have never seen such a confusion of number series surrounding any minibrot. The image is supposed to have a mixture of order-7 and order-2 elements around the minibrot. What then are the *5* brilliant white points doing in the scene? I guess it's no problem however. The image, dark and somber as it is, is still worth the minute or so required to run the parameter file. And as always, instant relief is at hand on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> where the image is posted, ready for viewing. Lots of sun and a temperature of 72F 22C here at Fractal Central on Wednesday gave the fractal cats much to enjoy. Unfortunate- ly, they wasted most of the day quarreling over the catnip rat and had little enjoyment. My day was quite busy. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and I heard that the world will end on December 21, 2012. I hope I don't miss it.
