Title: Fractal landscape
Post by: Duncan C on February 04, 2009, 04:13:41 AM
This is a landscape image I created in FractalWorks (http://web.mac.com/dchampney/Site/FractalWorks.html), a free, high performance fractal renderer for Macintosh computers.

I used distance estimate data to generate a height map, then rendered the result in OpenGL.

I created the original image at a larger size, then downsampled it using "Bicubic sharper" in Photoshop, which does a good job of antialiasing the final image.

The clouds were added in Photoshop.

Click here to see the plot details, along with a link to recreate the image yourself if you have a recent version of
FractalWorks:

Mandelbrot 2 2_1_09 (http://www.pbase.com/duncanc/image/108811010)

I've also created anaglyph and cross-eyed stereogram versions if anybody is interested.
