FOTD -- September 04, 2005 (Rating None) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: Most of today's discussion appears on the philofractal list. Today's image is a scene in the fractal that results when 0.3 part of Z^4 is subtracted from Z^2 and C is added. The bubbly effect was achieved by rendering the image with the inside set to 'bof60'. Since I do not feel like thinking of names, I gave the image a date instead of a name. I gave it no rating. The render time is slightly slow, but the finished GIF image is available on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> The weather is absolutely perfect, and is forecast to remain perfect for the rest of the week. Maybe the perfect weather will take the fractal cats' minds off of the suffering of the cats in the Gulf Coast area. The next FOTD, which will be lots of philosophy and little fractal talk, will appear in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and keep looking forward.
