How come we look so different in photos than in the mirror?

Photos capture an image of light.  And mirrors essentially reflect photons. We know that photons, particles of light, have wave/particle properties and when they are reflected off of an object, they are affected by the surface of the object of mirror. Look at your self on both side of a spoon.  The concave part, the one that is curved in, should have an upside down version of you, and on the otherside, convex, you will have an elongated version of yourself.  \nIf you look at the queston from a quantum phsyics perspective.  Every time you look in the mirror, you will see a different you. This is because you are actually seeing different light reflecting off a different surface.  \nI really dont know much about cameras, but thank God for photo shop.  Mirrors are a bad invention in my opinion.  People get caught up in having to maintain an external image that the rest of the world sees, when in reality the image of ourselves that we should really work on is the one inside our heads.  Anyways, I hope I answered your question to some extent.

Would need to see a pic to decide, some people look better with facial hair and some dont, just depends on the person.

The first cameras needed quite a lot of exposure for a picture to be formed (sometimes well over half an hour) and to keep the photographs from coming out blurred the subjects had to remain very still.  This can be quite difficult to do if you have your face in some sort of unnatural smile!  Although photographs would mainly have been taken of inanimate objects when exposure time was this long, even when it was shortened it still took several minutes for an exposure to form. There may also be social reasons-maybe the families wanted to look dignified and not ridiculous, but on the whole its because of the long duration of perfect stillness required.  All the best!

Because most folks care how they appear to the public and they want you all to look your best when you go out in public...\nI have seen so many folks go to a store looking horrible and I wonder why they chose to wear what they did to leave their house...\nIf you look so bad, why not change into something that you look better in before leaving???

We all have different amounts of melanin in our skin. If we have less, our skin is lighter. If we have more, our skin is darker.

No question is a dumb Question. A dumb question qould be a question you'll never ask. \nBoobs are not "identical" twins, the grow by themself on each side of the body. When you are holding a mirror in the middle of your face and you would assume that your face would look exactly the same as you would look normally in the mirror you are wrong. Each half of your body has a own "character". That is something we have to life with.

I think that part of the problem is our society. We have totally unrealistic ideas about how people - Women in particular - are supposed to look. It becomes difficult to be okay with who you are when you don't measure up to the models. (even the guys who are losing their hair have these issues.) It seems like we are becoming more and more superficial. I have even heard someone remark to someone else that they didn't think somebody else could have any problems because they were so pretty. Imagine that - all my problems could be solved - if only I were pretty enough .... .... usually is not a case. Recommend her Montignac lifestyle. it will change all her world

Interesting...which is yours?  Is this reflective of who you look like or the image of who is inside you?

Because we are wacky and unpredictable creatures. Just like why we ask you if we look fat... one of those things that no matter what you do, you're wrong!

Because it's human nature. Plus, when we see someone, we only see their appearance before we get to talk to them and get to know them. After talking to a person, we are able to judge them based on their personality. I think in middle school or high school, looks matter much more than later in life. When we are younger, we are more immature and superficial.

simple. society put out the image of what the perfect woman should look like. So we go through shirt after shirt, pants, skirts, until we find something we feel we look good in. well, at least other females do. I work overnight and sleep during the day so i dont car as much about hat im wearing. its just gonna get messed up anyway. we like looking for things that fit us in certain ways. the accentuate our good parts and hide what we think are our bad ones. plus somedays when people are bloated they feel they look different. its all in the mind really. i know i look good in whatever i put on. i wouldnt have bought it in the first place if i didnt.

Why do we appear backwards in the reflection of a mirror? How do we see our true image?\n\nWebsite below has the answers.

It's different for me because I am a man. But today's obsession with the body beautiful does affect confidence when we have some sort of disfigurement, but this can be got around by understanding your own true worth and laughing at the ignorance of the world.\n\nHaving had disfigurement all me life virtually, I am proud to be 'different' and not look like the same as everyone else. If someone offered me plastic surgery tomorrow free and made me look perfect, I would turn it down.

Why does it matter what you look like?
