May 3, 2012: A Deep North Valley May 2 May 4 2011 FOTD Home
 Rating 8

deep north valley

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's image is the third to come from the parent fractal of two days ago.  It is located in the large minibrot on the west branch of the filament extending from the large north bud of the parent.

This minibrot is even more distorted than its parent fractal.  It looks more like a Z^2.5 minibrot than the Z^2 minibrot that would be expected.  The west side of its main bay has two main sub-buds, which are so far apart that a third bud has appeared between them.  This new bud is split by a large valley, with today's image located rather deep in this valley.

The rating of an 8 indicates that I think the image is pretty good.  The name "A Deep North Valley" vaguely describes the location of the image in a minibrot of its parent fractal.

The calculation time of 3-1/2 minutes is slightly slow, but nowhere near as slow as yesterday's image.  As always, the web sites with the finished images are ready to bring relief.

After a crackling overnight thunder-storm, the day dawned cloudy here at Fractal Central.  The clouds broke at midday, leading to a mostly sunny afternoon with a temperature of 81F or 27C.  The fractal cats were unsettled by the overnight thunder, but had a relatively quiet day after things settled down.

The humans simply made it through the day without incident, which is enough of an accomplishment in itself.  The next FOTD will be posted soon.  Until that wonderful moment arrives, take care, and if everyone on earth could take care of themselves, what would those who enjoy helping others do to find happiness?
