Title: Wavy Elephant Post by: Duncan C on April 20, 2010, 02:41:36 AM Wavy Elephant (http://www.fractalforums.com/gallery/2/190_20_04_10_2_41_36.jpeg) http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2118 A fairly standard Elephant from Elephant Valley in the Mandelbrot set. Maximum iterations: 10000 Center Point (real, imaginary): -1.7494806173693, -0.00014613381773813 i Plot Width (real): 9.73E-13 Plotted using distance estimates to give the elephant crisp outlines. The colors were generated using a histogram based color scheme. They were then smoothed using fractional iteration values, but with a twist. I applied a sinusoidal change in brightness based on the fractional part of the iteration value, to give the wavy pattern you see. I rather like the effect. Duncan |
