[Fractint] FOTD 25-01-13 (The Seahorse Valley [No Rating])

25 Jan 2013

      FOTD -- January 25, 2013 (No Rating)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

I named today's image "The Seahorse Valley", and why not.  
That's what the image shows.  Yes, I know it looks nothing like 
Seahorse Valley, but it's not the familiar Mandelbrot or Julia 
views of the valley.  Its orientation is off in some remote 4-D 
orientation not too far from the Julia aspect of the valley.

The close-to-Julia nature is apparent in the outer shape of the 
figure.  The more interesting inside stuff exists because the 
angle of the slice has been rotated six degrees toward the 
Oblate orientation and one degree in another unimaginable 4-D 
direction.

I declined to rate the image, since Seahorse scenes are so 
common in FOTD history.  If the image had not been such a slow 
one, I might have rated it at a 7, but 15 minutes is quite a 
wait for an image to finish, especially when it lies out in a 
hyperspace no-man's land.  Those who view the image on one of 
the web sites will avoid the calculation wait and get quite a 
bargain.

The finished image is posted in its full glory at:

The 24th brought a mix of sun, clouds and more cold weather to 
Fractal Central.  Today brought clouds and snow.  At post time 
about 1-1/2 in. or 4cm had fallen and the snow was still falling 
lightly.  The fractal cat spent the day watching the flakes come 
down and lying by the heat.  The humans spent the day getting 
the work finished and readying the snow shovel.

The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take 
care, and why doesn't the other side see that it is wrong?
