 A very unusual frost formation includes numerous curls of frost crystals. Curves are common, but complete circle of curls are rare. Creating even more fantastic patters I've arranged this one photo into a quad where a mirror reversed image butted to the original is again mirrored to become a quad. The beautiful pattern created is nature's own, first ice crystals as they formed on a window, then repeating those patterns as in a kaleidoscope.

This is really cool! There are a couple hidden faces in there. I have a vivid imagination, I'm not on anything. Right above center there's a guy with a goatee with big eyes, curly longish hair and some sort of headband thing. Then look right above him and there's a strange demon type face with eyes, nose and all. And off to the sides at the quarter way mark there's another face, v-shape with the chin poiting towards center. Kind of looks like a Chinese dragon or something. Check it out! Nice photo by the way.

It's a beautiful pattern, nicely observed. The mirrored treatment enhances the image immeasurably.
