I'm early again! I didn't forget! Yay!
Continuing the dIFS Pong I'm doing with @mandelsage, here's my #014, picking up from his #013 which you can see here > https://steemit.com/art/@mandelsage/factory-or-difs-pong-with-welshpixie-013 .
I swapped out ColumnsIFS for FernTransform. At first everything looked a bit spacious and messy, but increasing the menger iterations brought everything closer together and made more densely packed structures. After that, it was just finding a good camera angle, and turning on the lovely volumetric light! ^.^
For giggles, I've also made a version with some water, trees and birds. The water is using Flaming Pear's Flood addon for Photoshop, and the trees and birds are with photoshop brushes.
I also upped the saturation and contrast, added a little lens flare, and applied a 'turquoise haze' photoshop action for a bit of a colour gradient. :D
Here are the parameters:

Woot! Having two transform formulae is gonna be interesting. This is awesome!
What did you use to get the water? Flaming Pear's "Flood 2"?
Yeah, I mentioned it in the post ^.^ I have no idea what's a transform and what isn't, hehe. I just look through the three dIFS drop-downs and pick one at random and see if it does anything interesting XD
Oh! Somehow I missed that paragraph :B
Transform formulae are in the third and last drop-down :) ... They aren't shapes in themselves, they only manipulate other formulae somehow. Actually, I'm not seeing Fern in this one! ;P It's all Menger... Unless that odd layering is the Fern doing something... =)
Ahhhh ok!
I think the fern maybe changed the shapes that are making up the larger structures? I guess you can't see them in this render because they're so tiny but if I drop the number of menger integers I can see the individual shapes better and they change shape on tweaking fern.
