I'm writing something on water and noticed ‪fibers in water cast odd shadows (by the Mandelbrot set it would appear, w/ some degree of angle)‬. I want to include a mathematical analysis about it & how it may be a key characteristic in biology (along with the ability to create multiple wave fronts, resist temp change if stretched), but can't find research projecting the phenomenon. Help?

You might find caustics relevant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caustic_(optics)?
