[Fractint] FOTD 17-09-11 (Escape to Nowhere [7.5])

18 Sep 2011

      FOTD -- September 17, 2011 (Rating 7.5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a scene in the parent fractal that results when 
1.5 negative parts of Z^(-5.1) are combined with 5.1 negative 
parts of Z^(-1.5) before (1/C) is added on every iteration.  
This parent is a fractal in the shape of a vertical string of 
three large bays, with a 'fan' extending east from the origin.  
Today's image is located in a small field of disconnected debris 
just south of the southernmost large bay.

Since the scene of the image is not connected to the main body 
of the parent fractal, the elements surrounding the central 
minibrot are also disconnected.  These disconnected shards do 
make a rather attractive scene however, raising the rating of 
the image to a respectable if not outstanding 7-1/2.

I named the image "Escape to Nowhere".  The name has a kind of 
ominous feeling to it that matches the rather somber blue 
background of the image.

The calculation time of a fireball fast 34 seconds assures that 
any disappointment after running the parameter file will be 
minor.

To avoid the possibility of even a minor disappointment, check 
the finished image on the official FOTD web site at:

and avoid calculation altogether.

A mix of sun and clouds with a temperature around 64F 18C made 
today a rather pleasant one here at Fractal Central.  But the 
fractal cats are already becoming impatient for the heat to be 
turned on.  They will have to wait a bit longer however; the 
season is still summer.

The humans took a short antiquing trip during the afternoon, 
finding nothing of unusual interest.  The next FOTD will be 
posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and look alive.  
You'll have time enough to look dead.
