FOTD -- March 21, 2010 (No Rating) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: There will be little discussion about today's image because FL and I were off on an antiquing expedition to Hagerstown down in Maryland all day Saturday. We found nothing of interest but had a fun time anyway. The image for today is a minibrot in the Z^(1.23)+C Mandeloid. It has no rating and is named "Midget mania". It takes a normal 4-1/3 minutes to finish, though I recommend viewing it on the FOTD web site at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> The weather today was sunny with a temperature of 77F 25C -- near record warmth. When we got back from Maryland around sunset, the fractal cats were happy. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and fractals may rule the universe, but who or what made the fractals?
