Yes, it looks like Mirage to me. If you take all the changes in the atmosphere then there is a big chance that this is a Mirage. Very interesting :)

That's interesting. To me it looks like a huge building or kind of a space shuttle start platform. What is strange if all the time the focus is still on the waves in front of the camera and it seems the camera doesn't switch automatically on infinity. Also when it is difficult to focus in almost white areas or in haze.

In the picture below it looks like an oil rig, but there are no in the Superior lake.

I think it's Granite Island lighthouse and tower, located 12 miles off the southern shores of Lake Superior. The right atmospheric conditions can make light 'bend' over long distances.

That's a good find. I was also searching the shores of any building but was didn't any since the lake is pretty big.

And the colors also matching. Its just as in mirror, which wouldn't be surprise since its a reflection.
