Omg - amazing to say the least. Orbitals are, in fact, spaces in which there's a 90% chance to find an electron, and which can host up to two electrons. Since they're spaces, they include the atom's core as well, and it's known for being bigger than the electrons - just like your fractal! You managed to do something fantastic, I swear, and with a much appreciated chemical reference!

Wow. My chemistry teacher would be proud. It's been a long time since I have looked at chem but the fractal suggested the name all by itself. From the moment I got that formation going the name sprang forth.
Glad you enjoyed it.

You're telling me you weren't thinking of that kind of orbitals?
Then you're a guessing genius.

You're welcome anyway.

Very nice work. The separation of the pieces makes for an interesting optical novelty!

Thanks very much for your comment and the 
It was an experiment with an unexpected result which I liked no the less. I am glad you found it interesting. If you like optical novelty view Night Lily [link] full view and scroll the page.

I am a fan of optical novelties, as you may have noticed. There're one or ten of 'em in my gallery too. *grin*
The smoothness of the separations between the pieces of light (for lack of a better term) are what caught my eye. I'm more used to seeing 'tendrils' linking the pieces, actually, the seeming 3-d solid effect was the neat bit IMO.

That's why I kept it. I am still learning the relationships between the different settings and the effect they have on each other so this experiment yielded a wonderful result which I couldn't have predicted. I intend to revisit the technique with some other items of mine to see what happens.

*nod* Know THAT feeling verrrrrry well! *wry grin* I'd say there's at least one significant fraction of the great majority of my works thus far that are experimental - trying something new. There're very few that are created with a specific goal-state.

Here is my newest. Inspired by you interest in orbital I went ahead and tried the same process on another one of my pieces and this is where I ended up. Hope you like it - [link] .

Another spectacular piece of art. It would make such a nice desktop too

Thank you. I might just re render at larger size for easier desktop usage.
