[Fractint] FOTD 08-07-06 (FOTD for 08-07-06 [5])

8 Jul 2006

      FOTD -- July 08, 2006 (Rating 5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

With a new and unexpected customer to please, things were quite 
busy here at New Fractal Central on Friday.  But they were not 
so busy that I failed to find an average quality fractal.  (How 
many fractalists are willing to spend over 9 minutes running a 
parameter file, when I readily admit that the final result will 
be nothing out of the ordinary?)

The image is part of the fractal that results when 0.65 part of 
Z^5 is subtracted from 0.65 part of Z^3 and C is added.  It 
consists, as do most of my fractals, of a quadratic midget at 
the center, surrounded by the typical decorations.  The entire 
scene is filled with more holes than a swiss cheese.  Such holes 
must mean something, though I have never seen them discussed.

The rating of a 5 is perfectly average.  In a day or so I will 
resume naming the FOTD images, but today is not that day.  I 
leave it to the individual fractalist to decide whether the 
render time of over 9 minutes is excessive for an admittedly 
average image.  This decision may be escaped by downloading the 
completed GIF image from the FOTD web site at:

Near perfect weather prevailed here at New Fractal Central on 
Friday.  Not yet being permitted to go out, the new fractal cats 
paid no attention to the outside conditions.  They paid a lot of 
attention to their food dishes however.  My day was unusually 
busy, which accounts for the brief discussion.  The next FOTD is 
due to appear in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and make an 
effort to separate the real from the unreal.
