Diamondback

[Pauldelbrot]

A Matchmaker Julia set with two attractors. This one was a slow one to calculate due to aggressive antialiasing, multiple layers, and the high iterations on the green-blue layer (the smoothed iteration minimum was 200, and the attractor has period 39, which means 7800 actual iterations minimum, since the smoothed iteration's integer part is floor(actual iterations/period)!).
