Beautiful Fractals !!!

WHAT IS A FRACTAL? Mandelbrot and others describe Fractals as a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be subdivided into parts. They are generally self-similar and independent of scale. Basically a Fractal is any pattern that reveals greater complexity as it is enlarged.

Fractals graphically portray the notion of 'Worlds within Worlds' which has obsessed Western Culture from its tenth-century beginnings! - Alan Beck-

What do Fractals look like?

All the pictures on this page are representations of different kinds of Fractals!

Space!

Sunset!

This beauty is called the Lorenz Attractor!

When a Fractal seems animated it is only the geometric subdivided shapes that move giving the illusion of movement--the background does not move.

Some could be viewed as interpretations of familiar forms. Others are more artistic versions.



These are some wonderful examples!

My Personal Favorite!

Many real-world objects can also be described as Fractals -- Clouds, Mountains, Turbulence and Coastlines, which do not correspond to geometric shapes.



Clouds are not spheres, coastlines are not circles, bark is not smooth and lightning does not travel in a straight line------!!!!!!
