December 18, 2011: A New Valley Scene Dec. 17 Dec. 19 2011 FOTD Home
  Rating 6.5

new valley scene

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is a quickie I found in a hurry to get the FOTD caught up to date.  The parent fractal was created by subtracting 2 parts of Z^2 from Z^(33) and adding straight (C) on each iteration.

This parent appears as the outline of a circle centered around 1.8, with a reasonably intact Mandeloid at its east edge and what resembles a fragment of a main spike at its west edge.  Today's scene lies in a valley in an open hole on this spike fragment.

Since I have never before seen this exact type of valley, I named the image "A New Valley Scene".  I have seen many similar valleys however, and this holds the rating to a modest 6-1/2, one-half point of which is due to the coloring.

The calculation time of 3-2/3 minutes is a bit dragging.  But once again, the FOTD web sites ride to the rescue.

A chilly day with a mix of sun and clouds, and a temperature of 34F +1C, added nothing to the comfort rating here at Fractal Central today.  The fractal cats spent the day debating which of them owns which piece of furniture.  The humans, FL and I, did little but try to enjoy the season, which is often easier said than done.  The next FOTD will be posted in 24 hours.  Until then, take care, and be tolerant of intolerance.
