Description

Ultra Fractal 5.03, with five layers used. The formulas are courtesy of Erik Reckase (one of the Carr formulas), and the transformation is from Damien (Jones). Well, the oracle has "spoken" and Spain becomes the favourite for tomorrow's World Cup final. Even so I'm told going Dutch is the prudent course for many. As an Englishman I'm in the hilarious position of becoming a supporter of the referee and his linesmen. How do you read the picture in this context? Orange is used for some of the curly bits so a reference to Holland results. Supposedly I could have added the colours of the Spanish strip to empahise the weaving, the close marking but I'm sure your imaginations will do well enough without. Will I watch the game? I'm not sure. My apologies for the lack of commenting. Sitting at this computer is physically an uncomfortable experience at the moment so the length of the sessions is being severely constrained. Cliff.

Delightful transparency, and when the Dutch win, another creation in a more saturated orange will be fun to see, and I'm sure from the heart.... :-) Maybe the USA will get a better call next time....
