F.O.T.N. (Fractal of the Night) 18 Jan 1998 (Elephant)
Tonight's fractal, discovered on a dark jungle night, is from the MSet,
corresponding to the map of the Julia sets computed from a formula by Michael
G. Wareman. This comes from the Elephant valley - well when you look in Elephant
valley that is what you are likely to see. However, the strange additions
to the usual MSet elephants look like water being sprayed in the air. The
formula is
z = p1*(z2 + c)2/((z2 + c) + p2) + c
with p1 and p2 equal to 3.
