November 24, 2021: "Islands" by Wolfgang Beyer

This image sparked my interest in the Mandelbrot set, and I set out to re-create it in my own program. It appears on the Mandelbrot set Wikipedia article (details of this particular image are here). I really like the symmetry and complexity of Julia set "islands" that appear throughout the Mandelbrot set, and this is a particularly elegant one.

December 3, 2021: "Julia Minibrot" by me

This particular Julia set is found at a relatively shallow zoom depth, so it was an early one I was exploring while writing Very Plotter. You don't have to zoom in much at all into the center of the Julia set to find this minibrot.

December 9, 2021: "Untitled 2" by me

This location has a relatively high number of max iterations at 950,000, though much of the image has far fewer iterations than that.

I like this location for its spirals-made-of-spirals simplicity.

December 17, 2021: "Untitled 3" by me

I liked the gradient effect at this location. It was initially rendered before smooth colors were implemented in Very Plotter. Renders are available for both the original banded colors and newer smooth colors.

December 26, 2021: "Wireframe" by me

This Julia set location has unique wireframe-like lines both surrounding the formation and between features within it. In the spiral areas the lines create a seashell appearance with a sense of curvature.

December 31, 2021: "New Year" by me

Toward the very edge of the Mandelbrot set, at a shallow zoom depth, with minimum bailout and banded, not smooth, colors, we get these pleasant interlocking petal shapes. This image has a new years black and gold color palette and slope shading that makes it look subtly embossed.
