Description Fiber optics - the new way to communicate is with pulses of light.

Created in Apophysis; no post work except for text. My longest render yet - around 72 hours. I know, don't say it but I wanted to get the smokey tones solid for the print version. Check out an enlarged portion here [link]

Entry into the "Fractals - Theme is LIGHT" contest [link]

Please click the image for "Full View".

Thanks for looking.

That is a major render... 3 days... you deserve the "Most Patient Fractal Artist Award" for putting up with a render for that long.

Thanks but not really. I have two newer laptops so I use one just for rendering. Actually, it's the slower of the 3 but still 1.7ghz (M Chip) - 512 ram.

Mostly in manipulating the triangles.

What a GREAT comment. I really try to have my own style so it means a lot to me.

Very neat; it does give off the sense of high frequency or loudness with those colors and pulses of line. Not bad at all!
