Description
The classic Mandelbrot fractal using an image color map. The image colors can be tuned with the Tune Color and Color Repeat controls. Zooming in to find more detail is easiest starting with the last 2 presets, which point to the main Mandelbrot “lake”. As you zoom in start with the Offset controls. As you zoom in deeper, change to the Fine, Finer, Finest, then Micro controls. To zoom 100 times deeper, click Super Zoom (reduce Zoom to 1 before you do this). Color Repeat "repeats" the color map for various color effects. The best results in lighting often use low (even .01 or .1) height values and high brightness values in the Lighting tab. Save Presets often when exploring. If you get lost, you can go back!
