Today's fractal is an illustration from "Max Iter's Field Guide to Imitation Minibrots". Like yesterday's fractal this is a minibrot wannabee. Unlike yesterday's fractal it is politely symmetrical not unnervingly twisted. However even the most cursory examination of the nose and side buds show it to be not a true minibrot. As the French say C'est le vino, or something like that.
