May 4, 2012: Jewel of the Alps | May 3 | May 6 | 2011 | FOTD Home |
Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
I
see that the
rating of today's image has dropped back to a 7. Well, I
guess
we'll just have to do something about that in the days to come.
The image lies in the parent fractal that results when 6.6 negative
parts of Z^(-1.6) are combined with 2.3 negative parts of Z^(-3.7) and
(1/C) is added on each iteration. This parent is a
north-south
series of large bays, with the southernmost bay being the largest and
also the most critical. Today's scene is located on the
northeast
shore line of this large southern bay, at the point where the buds
appear ready to shrink to nothing.
The name "Jewel of the Alps" is a misnomer. Neither the image
nor
the parent bears any resemblance to the Alps.
The calculation time of 3 minutes will pass swiftly once the first
coarse pass is finished and the awe-struck fractalist can see what is
on the way.
Today dawned foggy here at Fractal Central. The fog lifted in
the
morning, revealing a brilliant blue sky and puffy white
clouds.
The rest of the day brought a series of thunder-showers alternating
with brilliant sunshine. The temperature of 84F 29C kept the
fractal cats happy as they watched the falling rain. Then
they
decided that asking for food would be more profitable.
The humans made it through the day with nothing to report other than a
decorative tile that FL said flew off the kitchen wall and landed on
the other side of the room. (Poltergeist activity
perhaps!)
The next FOTD will be posted as soon as I have it ready.
Until
whenever, take care, and successful people never follow the crowd, they
set the path for the crowd to follow.
