Hello everybody ! This site is dedicated to fractal art. It is my private images collection  gathered in the web. That means the pictures are chosen only according to my taste. I post them because it is fun for me and for the people that love this kind of art. All fractal images are posted with artists permission ! All images are copyright by their creators ! If you want to use them publicly or for profit purpose please contact the appropriate artist not me ! If you do not know what fractals are let me give you short introduction from Whatis?com. The term "fractal" was coined by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975. It comes from the Latin fractus, meaning an irregular surface like that of a broken stone. Fractals are non-regular geometric shapes that have the same degree of non-regularity on all scales. Just as a stone at the base of a foothill can resemble in miniature the mountain from which it originally tumbled down, so are fractals self-similar whether you view them from close up or very far away. Fractals are the kind of shapes we see in nature. We can describe a right triangle by the Pythagorean theorem, but finding a right triangle in nature is a different matter altogether. We find trees, mountains, rocks and cloud formations in nature, but what is the geometrical formula for a cloud? How can we determine the shape of a dollop of cream in a cup of coffee? Fractal geometry, chaos theory, and complex mathematics attempt to answer questions like these. Science continues to discover an amazingly consistent order behind the universe's most seemingly chaotic phenomena. Mathematicians have attempted to describe fractal shapes for over one hundred years, but with the processing power and imaging abilities of modern computers, fractals have enjoyed a new popularity because they can be digitally rendered and explored in all of their fascinating beauty. Fractals are being used in schools as a visual aid to teaching math, and also in our popular culture as computer-generated surfaces for landscapes and planetary surfaces in the movie industry. Here are some words about me. My name is Anatoly and I was born in 1973 in Russia but now I constantly live in Israel. I study 3d degree on environmental chemistry in the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. My main hobbies are hiking, books reading, nature photography, programming and music listening. I love pets especially cats. If you wonder about the site name I can tell you that for me it is concerned with quest, exploration and adventure. It is the name of spaceship from the novel of russian fantast writer and paleontologist Ivan Antonovich Efremov - "Tumannost andromedy". It has no relationship to tantra doctrine, at least in the common sense.
