Creating fractal images for visual worship

By Guest Blogger | December 16, 2009

Here is an explanation for creating “fractal images” like the Christmas ones we published yesterday. Richard created the Christmas fractals using a freeware fractal generating program called Apophysis.  To read more about fractals, visit here.
