FOTD -- September 13, 2006 (Rating 6) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: The continuing rush on Tuesday meant anther hurried FOTD image. Today's rather unusual scene is a feature of the Julibrot. It is located some distance to the viewer side of the large midget at -1.75,0 of the Mandelbrot set. It is sliced in he Oblate direction, which is the orientation determined by the real(z) and imag(c) axes of the Julibrot. I named the image "Side Attraction" because it is located to the side of the Mandelbrot set. I rated it at a 6 because it is just interesting enough and colored well enough to deserve that rating. The render time of under 1 minute means that those who rendered the image themselves and are disappointed by it, will not have wasted much computer time. Those who don't render may find the image already rendered on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> The cloudy, chilly weather here at New Fractal Central on Tuesday, with a temperature of only 63F 17C, worried the fractal cats not the least. They are showing all signs of being permanent indoor cats, which is the healthiest, but perhaps not the happiest life for a cat to lead. In the evening, they romped and enjoyed their treats of tuna and cheese. For me, the current rush is rapidly coming to a close. The current one went well enought, but I hope these rushes don't come too often. I fear I'm getting too old for this kind of stuff. The next FOTD is quite likely to appear as scheduled in 24 hours. Until that glorious moment, take care, and philoso- phize mightily.
