One of a series of symmetrical designs. See the set here: www.flickr.com/photos/david_lewis_baker_arts/sets/7215762...
Strictly speaking, a true symmetry only exists in patterns which repeat exactly and continue indefinitely. But most of my symmetrical works only have reflections in horizontal and vertical directions, not across diagonal axes. If we flip across a diagonal line, we do not get the same pattern back; what we do get is the original pattern shifted across by a certain distance.
The relationship of symmetry to aesthetics is complex. Certain simple symmetries, and in particular bilateral symmetry, seem to be deeply ingrained in the inherent perception by humans of the likely health or fitness of other living creatures, as can be seen by the simple experiment of distorting one side of the image of an attractive face and asking viewers to rate the attractiveness of the resulting image. Consequently, such symmetries that mimic biology tend to have an innate appeal that in turn drives a powerful tendency to create artefacts with similar symmetry. One only needs to imagine the difficulty in trying to market a highly asymmetrical car or truck to general automotive buyers to understand the power of biologically inspired symmetries such as bilateral symmetry.
Yet another possibility is that when symmetries become too complex or too challenging, the human mind has a tendency to "tune them out" and perceive them in yet another fashion: as noise that conveys no useful information. Finally, perceptions and appreciation of symmetries are also dependent on cultural background. The far greater use of complex geometric symmetries in many Islamic cultures, for example, makes it more likely that people from such cultures will appreciate such art forms (or, conversely, to rebel against them).
As in many human endeavours, the result of the confluence of many such factors is that effective use of symmetry in art and architecture is complex, intuitive, and highly dependent on the skills of the individuals who must weave and combine such factors within their own creative work. Along with texture, colour, proportion, and other factors, symmetry is a powerful ingredient in any such synthesis; one only need to examine the Taj Mahal to powerful role that symmetry plays in determining the aesthetic appeal of an object.

Great Blue Heron, Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I never noticed the lovely repeat pattern in a Great Blue Heron's feathers. It almost reminds me of an Indian headdress.

just trying out some different repeats of my summer flowers design. hand drawn, coloured in photoshop - in the restricted palette for this weeks spoonflower contest.
this is the tile for my summer floer design in half drop repeat - would you believe it took me 4 hours to learn how to do a simple half drop repeat - had never done one before, so had a go and after about 2 hours of trying and failing i realised i should probably read some sort of tutorial on it hahaha!
i actually really like this repeat, reminds me of some wallpaper we had at home when i was little. very 70's. still don't know which repeat to enter though!!
THIS IS THE VERSION I FINALLY CHOSE TO ENTER!
