Today’s fractal image is from deep in the Seahorse Valley

This is a zoom into the lower right of the previous image. Coordinates are -0.0821507304089322 + 0.8799895735168i. The zoom is 10^8, the iteration bailout is set for 30720. That may seem like a deep zoom, but many people have dug much deeper into the Mandelbrot set.

Fractal art, such as in the previous post, often resembles Psychedelic art. It may be interesting to ruminate about the similarity in a future post. But let’s leave the deep thinking for later, and for now just say “it’s the colors”.

When I am building a fractal I am always tempted to add more and brighter colors. In my program, that is an easy knob to turn. There are so many colors to choose from, I do not want to leave any out.

It takes more effort to work with a limited palette. Here is the same fractal as the previous post, but with a blue and brown color palette.

This is a magnification of one of the spirals in the lower left of the previous image. Coordinates are -0.0821502555 + 0.8799897640i.

Here is a zoom into the area between the top bulb and the main body of the minibrot in the previous post. For those with a map, the center is at -0.0821489887 + 0.8799892298i
