Towards the Crater

Download for 1280x960 resolution

This is a rather deep in-zoom in one of the hanging down scepters at the top left in the previous deviation Tweaked Sunburst.

Software: Ultra Fractal.
Color routine: Continuos Potential Method (CPM).
Formula: Pentic Parameterspace3 in the sp3-module written by my dear friend Greenseng here at DeviantART. All his modules, as well as mine can be downloaded here.

Only the set M4 is drawn. Cause the motive is entirely inside the sets M1, M2, M3, The set M4 here is a part of PCL (Pentic Connectedness Locus, the dull analogy to the Mandelbrot set for 5th degree polynomials).

Below the parameter file, play and have fun
