[Fractint] FOTD 15-01-06 (NO RATING)

      FOTD -- January 15, 2006 (NO RATING)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

A bit of unscheduled work kept me busier than expected on 
Saturday, and the task of planning for the big move further cut 
into the fractal time.  As a result, today's image was 
short-shrifted, and will remain forever nameless and unrated.

It pictures an unexceptional midget in the Z^(1.3)+C fractal as 
it appears 12 levels up the logarithmic spiral.  Like so many 
low order midgets, today's midget is surrounded by a highly 
fractured pattern giving the impression of an explosion.

The render time of just under 9 minutes is a bit long for an 
unrated image, but the wait can be eliminated by downloading 
the completed GIF image from the FOTD web site at:

High winds, temperatures in the 40's and occasional showers kept 
the fractal cats indoors on Saturday.  When night fell, the rain 
showers changed to flurries of snow, but by that time the cats 
were more interested in their tuna.  My day was unexpectedly 
busy with work and moving preparations, which means the next 
FOTD will not appear until Tuesday.  Until 48 hours from now, 
take care, and be at peace.
