Why does my face look unfamiliar when I see a photograph?
-
If you are curious about which is more accurate mirror or camera, it can sometimes be the image reversal and photographic perspective. A traditional mirror would record a laterally reversed image, but a photograph would usually record your face with no reversal, according to Visuals Clipping. The effect can also vary according to camera distance, lens type, lighting and the expression of the faces. As you will see yourself in a mirror all the time, it may be simply easier to make a mistake with a non-reversed photo, even if it is of your own features.
