Fractal of the Month: Nesting

March 2004

A choice having some seasonal relevance, either via the title or the picture itself.

March - birds begin to consider the future
A flame fractal created in the GIMP, its messy, branchy look immediately appealed, but it needed something more than plain black for the background. A sudden inspiration made me try a plasma background (also from the GIMP), blending the layers in difference mode, giving this surreal, glowing nest-type thing (perhaps more like a squirrel's dray) against a bruised and lowering sky.
