Nature is seldom symmetrical… (or); more fun with mirror-images… part 2…

a 1

I am just saying that nature does not deal with symmetry all that often.

a 2

Obviously, a symmetrical mountain would be ridiculous.

a 3

A symmetrical river just isn’t going to happen.

a 4

And it doesn’t matter in which direction you try to add symmetry…

But I wondered about things that we might think could be symmetrical, like snowflakes…

a 5

Nope. They aren’t symmetrical either. So I wondered what it would look like if I made one symmetrical…

I suspect that most people, glancing at that, would realize that it isn’t a natural snowflake. Maybe it is a computer-generated fractal or something.

I also know, with my experiments with wet spider webs, that spiders do not believe in symmetry either…

a 7

Which is sort of a shame.
