December 14, 2010: Fade-Out Dec. 13 Dec. 15 2010 FOTD Home
 Rating 5

fadeout

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a scene in a Mandelbrot set that in its depths is starting to morph into a quintic set.  The scene is located inside a minibrot on a stem of the star of the period-7 bud on the northwest shore line of the main bay of its Mandelbrot parent.

The image is filled with both minibrots and antiminibrots, which are a bit tricky to tell apart at a casual glance.

I named the image "Fade-Out" because of the way the upper part of the image appears to fade into the mist.  The rating of a 5 is conservative.  The actual rating might be closer to a 6.

I leave it to the individual fractalist to decide whether the finished product is worth the calculation time of 7 minutes.

For the convenience of those who do not calculate, the finished image should soon be available on the web site at:

My own web site is still in the planning stage.

The entire catalog of past FOTD images is available on the original FOTD web site at:

A mix of sun and clouds, a biting northwest wind and a temperature of 25F -4C made Monday a rough day to be outdoors here at Fractal Central.  The fractal cats spent a good part of the day lounging on their new shelf by the heat, though they did get up several times to go to their window shelf to check that things were under control outside.

My day was busy; FL's day was the same.  The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and do it with style.
