Made in Apophysis 7X and GIMP, my first fractal since the hiatus. Finally, one that doesn't pixellate at all

Density @ 4500

I SEE 3D BLUE AWESOME BUBBLES.

*stares at it for hours in space wondering where they are going to and how many bubbles are there*

In this image there are 3,054* bubbles. As for where they're going, I have no idea.

*I made this up.

Oh well, is IS amazingly beautiful~
Nice job. xD

BUT I see reflected sparkles on the bubles leading to an invisible light source!!!

so..... i´m smiling..... maybe you were kidding when you said you have came back from the grave (in your journal) but look at your work...it seems to me a clear perspective from the minus infinte to zero and plus infinite....got it? more like a halo ....the infinity of an halo perspective (from the deepest point to the higher one) not of a bubble.... creapy no? yess...and is blue by "mistake"? no? then.... is curious how coincidences are playing with you..... you did it without thinking a little bit but this work is like your escape from something dark....like a release.... like that ultimate breath when we use to say: huh i´´ve did it finaly!..... ya.....curious very curious...
by the way...good luck on the contest.....
love it fave it.....
and ps: "return from the grave" could be a true title..... and a plastic one..... but i like this one too....

It was originally orange (Apo gives a random gradient) but I changed it to a green one that gives it the vivid colors within the palette, and then colored it blue on purpose in GIMP. I actually did think about this one though, I generally find what triangles do what and then see how they react. Fractals are really very exact, just the number of variables makes it seem chaotic. But that's how most things are

oh...allow me to begin with this short lesson of philosophy (its not really a lesson but i do not know other word): Nothing in this Universe is chaotic. Everything has a precise formula. Accepting the formula makes you human. Riving the formula make you an outsider. Making a new formula makes you God. But, no matter what you´ll do with all the formulas of the universe, if you like one, you are damned. Everything in your universe will follow that specific order of that specific formula. At first you´ll love it, then you´ll hate it, finally you be kneeled. So, loving a formula make you a slave....
Interesting, isn´t it?
Now, i didn´t used Apo that much like you did....I recently discovered it so i´m half-pixel comparing to you, but i know that blue is a thief.. is steeling life...and its my favorite color too...so....that´s why i´ve been asking you about ...this.
thanks for responding me, and for your time...and for your patience...
Like i said, i´m still wainting for that real flame fractal....
Have a nice God(good)-day, Byth!

hmm...I'm not sure if I agree with all of the points of this particular philosophy. Your fractals are fine, you just need to render them at a higher density

I didn´t told you for teaching you something or for accepting something....we are not on a philosophy forum...and the human opinions are...olala....to many and to subjectives...it just came in my mind when you said that everything seems chaotic with fractals and i wanted to share it with you...nothing more..... But thanks for the tip....i apreciate it!

Anyway, regarding density: it'll take longer to render (in fact, linearly, double density=double time).

But you should use the following densities as a minimum

1024x768=2000
1680x1050=4500
1920x1080=6000

And you can approximate and play with numbers a bit. It also depends a lot on the fractal, but you seem like you'll be able to judge that well

thank you for your good advise. i knew it some how but i have this problem with my resolution. when i use higher resolutions my comp give me an error from win 32 and stop working (its from svchost.exe and szappver in one offset that can´t be recognised by eny windows: szmodver is 0000 and it should be at least 0004). But for now i just can´t handle it. and i tried almost everything, but my Pc seems to be the real problem here. so, i use lower resolutions. when i render....well ...you sow it....not only that i have to render twice (some times it tooked me ages and 5 or 6 shoots) but also i can´t see exacly the quality of the new image becouse my monitor resolution is already a low one..so, sometimes i don´t even render no more... uhhh...a pain in the ass...you cannot image how i draw something .... but only untill september.... when i´ll take my revange.... and a new...alienPC couse this one....
but once again..thank you...i apreciate it!
have a nice day, Byth!

Oh no, resolution is how big it is, and takes up way more computing power. Density just takes longer, and it's on the right side of the menu. Good luck with the new PC. , the guy who makes Apophysis7X should be able to answer questions, you can comment on his page or note him.

I know that, Byth! What i do not know is why every filter or effect that I want to apply on a file some how conflicts with the resolution. The simplest blur for example is stopping me my computer, no matter what kind of program i use. There are programs which depends on hight resolutions, but a program like lets say Paint Brush give me problems when I render or when i try to apply the simplest effect. And this is not normal. And its not the software....I have the original Photoshop and i use it until now. The same thing happens with the original Poser 8. But now i just can´t use them anymore. Same with Apo (not Apo7x). So, i have to wait for a new Pc....because i have tried many things and i´m tired...
Thanks again for everything and for.... Xyrus. Have a good day, Byth!

Hmm...if your PC has slowed substantially, you can try scanning it with CCleaner, Defrag it, scan it for spyware and viruses, and the like. But the new PC will fix those anyway

Now you are teasing me.... I even erased the partitions from ms-dos (bought of them), create another ones, makes them active and then installed new windows. I have tried 6 kind of windows...nothing worked. I bought a new video card. Nothing. A new monitor. The same damn thing. Somebody told me that i should try a different kind of BIOS. Well i didn´t yet and i wont do it... I don´t know why (maybe because this computer did his job very well for a long time) but i´m convinced that is something on motherboard that just is not working anymore. And, besides that, i really want to by a new one (an alien one ) ...so, now i have the perfect opportunity...., but, again, thanks.... for advice and your patience

At that point, then yes, a new PC is the only answer

I just love the detail in the bubbles,, like some kind of eggs holding loads of other eggs...

Yeah...can bubbles have little bubbles in them? Maybe it would be more aptly named infinity eggs...but then I don't think it would sound pretty. More tasty though might counter that.

nope, it would sound pretty disgusting infinity eggs... :/
But bubbles and eggs aren't that different to be honest
