This fractal was generated by homemade software with minor post-processing in GIMP. It utilizes Kali's Julia formula from this post (http://www.fractalforums.com/new-theories-and-research/very-simple-formula-for-fractal-patterns/msg31786/#msg31786) with cx = -0.3 and cy = -0.1.

Ken! Winners don't use (too much) drugs :)

Nice image, but I guess you used some orbit trap or something, or did some tweak on the formula cause I can't get that checkerboards with this julia values.
I'm interested on how they are much like the patterns from the mandelbrot on reals formula (the white ones, near the symmetry line)

You've guessed right. I used the point (0, 0) as an orbit trap.

Good question. I don't see an obvious reason for the similarity.
