After talking about eagles yesterday and mimicking parrot plumage last week, I decided to stick with a feathery theme for this week’s fractal. To color this layered fractal set, I pulled the hues from the tail of a red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) and a few shades from a cloudy sky. Then, I wove them together to create this:
A Fractal Dreamcatcher
I must confess, I think I’m coming down with a cold, so I’m going to leave this fractal as it is, without any explanation. Instead, I’m about to curl up on the couch and try to catch a few dreams of my own.

Thanks for the comment Steve. I actually wrote in a comment here a few weeks ago asking what was happening with this blog after the announcement that O'Reilly was dropping the Digital Media division. It's really refreshing to get an honest comment on what's happening. I really hope the blog picks up again.
