FOTD -- October 19, 2010 (Rating 6) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: The name of today's image -- "Evaporated but Present" -- gives away the big secret -- the image is an evaporated one. The one- googol value of the imag(p3) parameter is yet another give-away. The scene lies in the same indescribable parent fractal as yesterday's image, though in a different part. In its entirety, this parent is truly indescribable, but it does somewhat resemble a snowman that has toppled over and is lying flat with its head facing east. The rating of a 6 was held back because the colors seem a little washed out, but a rating of a 6 is still above average, and with a calculation time of only 1 minute, what is there to lose. Perhaps the best way to view the finished image is to surf virtually out to the FOTD web site at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> and ogle the finished product there. Lots of clouds, occasional sprinkles of rain, and a chilly temperature of 52F 11C spoiled things here at Fractal Central on Monday. The fractal cats spent most of the morning squatted down in the sulk position, so I suppose they got no more enjoy- ment from the conditions than the humans did. Both my day and FL's day went along uneventfully. The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours. Until then, take care, and if one were to go back in time and shake hands with his younger self, would he remember both sides of the handshake when he returned to the present?
