I look at it this way

[computedshorty]

I am going to put my mirror up for sale, all I see is the same old bloke looking at me,and when I try to touch him he does it first, I have tried turning my back but he does the same, i'm now eating my Iceland meal quickly before he gets at it.

Question - why does a mirror reflect my image right to left

but not top to bottom

------------------------------------------------

If you didn't have feet you wouldn't be asking this question.

The mirror doesn't reflect your image right to left. Whatever is

actually on your left still appears to be on your left when you look in

the mirror. The right-to-left business is all from the viewpoint of

some other person looking at you, and that person sees your left as

their right.

Just to add that a mirror reverses along its Z-axis, i.e. the perpendicular depth dimension or, in simpler words, front to back, is reversed.

As does a photograph. So... when a woman says this is my good side/photograph my good side what does she mean? (or does it matter, just take the damn photo to keep her happy)

Don't get rid of the wing mirrors on the Zimmer tho Shorty

[Jah Lush]

When I look in a mirror I see a distance between me and my reflection that isn't far enough.
