It isn't just that there is more detail the closer you look that
makes a fractal - everything in the universe has that property.

Fractals also have the property of self-similarity: it looks
sort of the same close up as it does from far away.  It doesn't
matter how close you get there is always a family resemblance.
Some examples are plants: tree; branch; veins in the leaf,
mountains: mountain; cliff; shattered rock, and swirls:
galaxies; solar systems; storms; atoms.

Take up the description with Bowser, but because of your extensive
knowledge, I expect a truly stunning submission from you.

Sounds great, now just capture it on film, digital sensor, or other
light sensitive substrate that relies on photon stimulated electron
emission or exchange to produce a still image.

On an unrelated note:  I actually miss the weather in Cleveland this
time of year.

In that case I'll post a picture of the Tennessee Titans.  They suck
from any distance.

Hi. Bowser here...

Your definition is as good as any. Let 'er rip! And like the man said, given
your superior knowledge of fractals, we all expect great things in your
submission.
