Mandelbrot deep zoom

Not from me, but very cool:


Browse through the thread and probably you will find the most beautiful renderings of the mandelbrot fractal you've ever seen!
Those deep zooms are nice for testing arbitrary-precision integer mulitply performance and since this guy has provided the coordinates and coloring algorithm, I am already working on some kind of benchmark for CPU (GPU and parallella support also planned).
Will the Parallella be fast at this kind of computations?

Beautiful captures. I remember back in the days, I played hours upon hours with "fractint" on the PC-XT w/ 4-color VGA monitor... "fractint" was the most amazing piece of fractal software, doing with fixed-point math so much faster than the equivalent floating point software - b/c most PC's did not have an FPU (80x87) until a few years later.

I wish I had kept my screen shots from two and a half decades ago. I used to spend hours rendering and zooming about for that perfect image. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
