Precious

I looked at this a couple of days ago and didn't comment then. I just keep coming back and looking at this. I have never seen a flame quite like this, manipulated, or not.

There is a wonderful flow to this. I especially love the depth that is so evident in this, especially at full view, which is the only way to view any deviation.

I love the coloring here too. The dark, to gold, to dark. The way you used the gradient, it shows the gold off in a more bold way.

Truly a lovely, rich looking fractal. I absolutely love it.
