This would be sooo wide open to so much interpretation, that I think we'd get a LOT of really interesting images. Basic editing, to keep people from forcing the symmetry....it has to be as they saw it.
Here's the photo I took (sigh...not a good photo) that gave me this idea...

A good idea....but don't forget that mirrored symmetry is not the only type of symmetry that is found in nature (think helices, etc.) |

I'd go so far as to suggest that the title of the challenge, and its description, be modified to specifically EXCLUDE reflections. They're just too easy a way of achieving symmetry.

I agree, and want to state that the photo I used as an example was NOT because of the reflection...but because he was lined up so perfectly swimming straight at me. Even his thin beak was somehow PERFECTLY pointed right down the middle.
I also agree that symmetry does not have to be bi-lateral. |
