Mandelbrot Gallery

A collection of images of the Mandelbrot Set, with parameters so one can regenerate them. The images below are 500x500 pixels, and each image is a link to a high-resolution 2000x2000 pixel version of itself. The images were all created using mandel_tk or its parallel version mandel_tk_par.py. Another gallery of Mandelbrot examples which helpfully includes co-ordinates with its images is that of Dr David Eck.
