FOTD -- September 03, 2005 (Rating NONE) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: The fractal part of today's discussion is very brief. The part that appears in only the philofractal version is far longer and rather controversial. Today's image shows a scene in the fractal created by the formula (Z^2)+(0.3*Z^4.1)+C. I gave it no rating and no name. It renders in 15 minutes from the included parameter file. The finished image is available on the FOTD web site at: <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html> A political-philosophy rant appears at this point in the philofractal version. On the cat front, the weather on Friday was perfect and the cats had a great day. The next FOTD will appear in 24 hours, but be warned, politics is still the hot topic around F.C., and I am not in the mood to remain silent. Until next time, take care, and walk with fractals.
