Bad Apple, but it's a Fractal

I kinda wanted to contribute to all the Bad Apple edits, but didn't know how. And then I remembered that about five years ago I've made a program that can turn any image into a fractal, which also works best with monochrome images. So I did this.
The algorithm is a modified algorithm of making the Mandelbrot set. I mostly forgot how it's done, but the general idea is that each output pixel corresponds to a point on a complex plane, for which you launch the recurrent sequence like the one for the Mandelbrot set. If it lands on a black pixel of the original image at some point, it is painted black, and if it doesn't after N iterations, it's painted white. I think.
