Celebration

Description

I am honored to have tied for first place in Fractal-Love's Celebration Contest with Kancano's lovely work, Happy New Year.  Thanks to everyone who participated!  :D

*sigh*

I've been making a concerted effort to upload all of my recent spirals and swirls in the order I created them...I felt that my skill was evolving with time, but I was creating them too quickly, rendering them too slowly, and restraining myself to strictly one upload per day.  Normal course would dictate that I would first upload my spirals Spiraling into Control and A Drop of Golden Sun (both already rendered and two-and-a-half weeks old), my first "swirls" Witchcraft, Aquarium, and Apocalypse, pseudo-spirals In the Shadows of the Mind, Ataraxia, and Torrents of Flame, and more advanced swirls Deep and Pensive.  But alas, I wanted to enter this swirl in the Apo-Weekly-Challenge Challenge 65 - Hyperbolic Variation and the Fractal-Love Celebration Contest, so I paused Witchcraft halfway through its lengthy render on my main computer and expedited this one, leaving my main computer dangerously low on RAM for the past day-and-a-half or so.

Yes, I am thoroughly convinced that my computer hates me, and it is entirely justified in doing so.  :la: But my computer made it through (somehow) and I present to you this work, Celebration.  I hope my watchers will tolerate this glaring anachronism...perhaps it's more of a preview of fractal works to come.  :)

An Apophysis 7x fractal.  As with all my fractals, I highly recommend you zoom in for the best viewing experience.

A note on these params: you're welcome to take a look if you like, but I have a tutorial in the works for Fractal Week which should make these a bit more clear.
