FOTD -- June 25, 2013 (Rating A-7,M-6) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Today's image is named "Ground Base". The name has nothing to do with a mountain climbing expedition, it is simply a name I grabbed out of the air and gave to the image. The generating expression is rather unusual. It adds 6.1 parts of Z^(0.1) to a whopping 6100 parts of Z^(100) on each iteration to make a fractal resembling a heart lying on its side. Today's scene lies near the bottom (east) point of the heart-shaped bay. The artistic worth is a 7, the math value, a 6. The calculation time of 1-1/4 minutes will pass in a flash. But the flash may be avoided by checking the web sites. The rendered image is posted at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> A hi-def rendering is posted at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> The back fractals are at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> The heat and humidity here at Fractal Central today was broken in the afternoon by a light thunder-shower, which dropped the temperature from 90F 32C to 77F 25C. Both the fractal cat and fractal humans approved. The next FOTD will possibly be posted soon. It is also possible that the next fractal could be many months away.
