You know me by sight but not by name
I who am hidden in this frame
I’m easily distorted by rock or wind
But in only moments I can mend
I reveal all secrets and overhead spies
I uncover all hidden truths and lies
So look into my depths, traveler, but beware:
Not only truth is hidden there.

This is a riddle. Sorry to put the answer as the title, but I couldn't figure how else to do it.
