It's no image at all, until it comes to a focus in your eye or on the focal plane of your camera. There's no difference at all between a mirage and anything else you see, except that your brain places the mirage in a location or a direction where it obviously isn't. That's only because the light from it bends down more sharply than light usually does. Everything else about the whole process is completely ho-hum.
