Self-similar images

Post image for Self-similar images

So now I’m on a roll of making self-similar images. Not true fractals, where you can zoom in indefinitely, but fractal-like. Pseudo fractals. As before, I started with a custom shape in Photoshop. The starting image was a 5 x 5 grid of circle-ish shapes. I inset it into itself twice, then used that as a quarter of a symmetrical image:

The following images are variations, using either the original quarter image or the whole tile:

The entire tile set on an angle and cropped.
