More wild things from steam off boiling water backlit by the morning sun, images then copied & flipped into themselves in PhotoShop

Smoke&Mirrors, Ushguli, Svaneti, Georgia

... something completely different.

I had noticed the steam rising from coffee, tea or soup catching the backlighting of the morning sun, and decided to try capturing it.   These are some of the  more than 200 results - not very sharp, but interesting in themselves.  Then I went wild and copied the images on top of themselves in PhotoShop, reflecting them into all four 90-degree symmetries.  Suddenly they took on whole new lives. Here are 2 pairs, the original and its symmetrical version.
