Fractals Everywhere

I start off with a solemn apology, for having abstained from posting for so long. But nonetheless here's an interesting find. Fractals Everywhere.

It is common knowledge, that natural phenomenon like cloud formations, ocean currents and smoke follow fractal patterns. Taking a leaf off my interest in photography, I found fractal patterns using photographs I had clicked. The technique is simple, and I will add the explanation to this post in a little while. Till then, have a look at the patterns themselves.



The Buddhabrot (lookalike, so to say) : Receding waves at the beach
