Fractals of the Week: Day of the Moon Edition for 2013/05/13


G’day! Last week was a bit slow for new images, until toward the weekend, so I’m posting the most interesting ones here.

I’m doing research on Mandelbulber for my upcoming tutorial, including work on the blog draft, and I’ve created a rather cool parameter set that I’ll use in it, an octohedral/cubic Mandelbox figure which has generated some rather strange images…

Then again, strange, eerie, odd, and yes, eldritch are par for the course for this blog, and this looks like it’ll be a lot of fun when it’s complete.

But I’ve babbled enough. Here are the images… Click to embiggen.
