Nova Valley

A Nova fractal, Newton's method nudged by a constant: z → z − (z³−1)/(3z²) + c. Every pixel iterates to its resting place, and the image is a portrait of how it settles. Glossy orbs bloom where convergence is fastest, orange cores ringed in deep blue, while the slow frontier gathers into dark chains strung with pearls, fine lines tracing each point's approach. Muted grey-beige ground, the same forms repeating at every scale.
