[Fractint] FOTD 08-07-14 (A Skewed Outlook [A-7,M-8])

9 Jul 2014

      FOTD -- July 08, 2014 (Rating A-7,M-8)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a scene in the parent fractal that results when 
the expression Z^(1.7)+C is iterated 28 levels up the complex 
logarithmic hyperspiral.  This parent consists of a large 
twisted fractal with a large s-shaped bay, the whole thing 
surrounded by disconnected minibrot-like smaller fractals.  
Today's scene lies in a blunt valley in one of these small 
fractals well southeast of the main body of the fractal complex.

I named the image "A Skewed Outlook" when I noticed the totally 
different appearance of the left and right halves of the scene.  
This unexpected difference earns the math part of the image a 
rating of an 8.  The art part rates a 7, which is above average 
but nothing to brag about.

The calculation time of 5-3/4 minutes might start to drag for 
those fractalists with other tasks to attend to.  Here is where 
the web sites dash to the rescue.

The finished image is posted at:

A typically warm and muggy hazy summer day passed uneventfully 
here at Fractal Central today.  The temperature of 91F 33C kept 
things on the lazy side, especially among the fractal cats, who 
spent most of the afternoon stretched out in the living room.  
The humans, unable to take it as easy, spent the day doing the 
necessary things as slowly as possible.  The day ended with a 
heavy thunder-storm that dropped the temperature to 70F 21C.

The next FOTD will be posted in a day or two.  Until then, take 
care, and the more 'news' I see on the mass media outlets, the 
more I wonder how much of that 'news' has been carefully chosen 
and spun to create a particular political impression.
