The Sky

I was walking out of work one day and there was this cool two layer cloud formation in the sky. The top being standard white fluffy clouds, and the lower being thin, wispy dark clouds. Here is my first attempt at reproducing what I saw. This is about 120 lines of code and took 40 minutes to write.

Hexagon IFS

I saw this one on the January page of a 1995 fractal calendar. I figured I could reproduce it. Except for the ray tracer, this is about 300 lines of code and 5 hours of programming. This took about 15 minutes to genarate the data and 45 minutes to do the rendering on a RISC/6000 530H.

Twin Dragon IFS

This one was also inspired by the same fractal calender. The history of Affine transformations used to produce a particular point are used in computing the colors. It only takes two Affine transformations to generate this image.
