END OF AN ERA, FRACTALFORUMS.COM IS CONTINUED ON FRACTALFORUMS.ORG

This is the Perpendicular Mandelbrot Zoom, rendered in a couple of hours on a laptop - with Perturbation!

These Perpendicular fractals are cool since they have a different symmetry compared to the other fractal types.
The doubled pattern is just flipped along the x-axis and not flipped-and-mirrored.
Or, if you want another perspective, the ordinary fractals get doubled and rotated around the center point - the perpendicular get doubled, rotated and mirrored around the center point.

This make it hard to find the way to the final minibrot, so it requires some trial and error

Just look at the youtube preview image. There is a heart shaped pattern. In other fractals this would only be possible before centering the zoom half-ways to the minibrot. But youtube preview image is at 3/4 to the minibrot!
