[Fractint] FOTD 17-05-03 (Four Score and Seven [6])

17 May 2003

      FOTD -- May 17, 2003 (Rating 6)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

I must be brief again today.  The fractal lady is getting 
impatient for us to set out on the 'antiquing' trip that I 
somehow got myself roped into.  I think the destination is 
New Oxford, PA.

Today's FOTD image is named "Four-score and Seven".  I chose 
this title because of the four prominent basins of chaos that 
surround the almost-invisible midget at the center, and because 
of the 7 minutes it takes to render.  These coincidences 
reminded me of a famous speech that was delivered around 140 
years ago and opens with the words 'Four score and seven...'.

The scene is located on the left edge of the fan, in a 
disconnected area of chaos slightly inland from the actual edge. 
It is buried quite deeply, and located not too far from a larger 
midget.  The magnitude of the scene is so large in fact that I 
added the <mathtolerance> entry to the parameter file to be 
certain that it renders at the correct magnitude.

Since I lacked sufficient time to color the image properly, I 
could rate it no higher than a 6.  But 7 minutes is not too long 
a time to wait for an image rated at a 6.  And the completed GIF 
image is available as always at the FOTD web sites, which can be 
accessed at:

It rained heavily all day Friday here at F.C., producing 
flooding and unhappy cats.  The temperature of 54F 12C did 
nothing to help.  This morning is once again cloudy, but it is 
dry, and it is still wet.  The cats' moods are yet to be 
determined.

Somehow, I got myself into another day of studying the old worn-
out things that others no longer want.  It's time to hit the 
road, so until next time, take care, and see you in 24 hours.
