Flame Fractals offer a feast for the eyes

From his chaotic Crab Cooker to an elegant Crystal Window, Webshots member Rajahh cooks up another batch of fantastic Fractal Flames.

Incredible flame fractals take you through the wormhole

Another batch of amazing fractal flames created by Rajahh using the Windows, freeware application Apophysis.

Chaoscope fractals showcase the beauty of chaos

Webshots member Sandyckato used Chaoscope to create these beautiful fractal images. According to the Chaoscope Web site, the program is a “3D strange attractors rendering software.”

Flame Fractals continue to dazzle

Revisit the beauty of mathematics with this second flame fractal set from Webshots member Rajahh.

3D Flame Fractals

Webshots member Rajahh has taken his amazing fractal creations into the third dimension. Using Apophysis and a custom Paintshop Pro plugin, Rajahh created these fractal flames with a stereoscopic 3D effect. You’ll need two-color, 3D glasses to get the full effect.

Amazing flame fractals take your breath away

Witness the beauty and elegance of mathematics with 50 breathtaking fractals. Webshots member Rajahh created these Fractal Flames with Apophysis.
