Summary

[edit]
Description

Zoom of the Mandelbrot set around a point (in this case i) projected so that the distance to the point forms a logarithmic scale. Details on the left edge are ~10^15 times smaller than on the right edge.

The rightmost black blob in the pictures is the main "continent" of the set. The tendril spiralling towards i forms a "straight" line in this picture.

The colors are set using the distance estimator method.
