This image also shows circles attached at the roots of unity. Perhaps the most interesting presentation based on lambda is found by translating the lambda plane left one unit then inverting. The point where the two circles meet is moved to zero, then inverted off to infinity. The interiors of the two circles are mapped to the outside of an infinite vertical strip. The strip is one unit wide centered at 0.
Small circles are tangent to the sides of the strip and inside the strip.
Note that the circles are not of uniform size and they aren't uniformly placed. The sequence of circles attached to the right of the main cardioid get smaller and smaller and approach this point. That point is not the end of the Mandelbrot set since there's a path leading off to the right. Inverting on that point makes all these circles larger and larger instead of smaller and smaller. Exploring this inverted plane can be quite interesting.
