Abstract photograph created using a single photo of fall sumac leaves and sumac branches. The sumac leaves extend along either side of a slender branch. Fall sumac leaves range from red to orange to yellow and in various combinations of those three colors. The photo is created by copying the original and then flipping the copy horizontally. The original and the copy are joined at the flip point and then both are copied, flipped vertically, and the resulting copies are then joined at the flip point. The result is four-quadrant image with each quadrant a mirror of the quadrants opposing it. The appearance is similar to what one would see in a four-mirror kaleidoscope. In addition to the realistic objects in each photo, the process creates multiple abstract objects especially at or near where one photo attaches to another.
