In front of a mirror
When you stand in front of a mirror, you see a reflection of yourself. The mirror reverses right and left, but not up and down, so you see a flipped image of yourself.
It is you you. It is the reflection, of the person looking into it.
When you stand in front of a concave mirror, you will see an upright magnified virtual image of yourself. The image appears behind the mirror, and its size and position will vary based on your distance from the mirror and its curvature.
You can see reflections of objects and people that are in front of or around the mirror. Mirrors reflect light, allowing you to see an image of yourself or whatever is in front of them.
Trial yourself in front of a mirror
you see an inverted real image of yourself
So a driver in front of an ambulance can read the word when they look in the rear view mirror
An image in a mirror is a reflection of the objects or people in front of it. The mirror reflects light rays that bounce off the objects, creating a reversed and virtual representation of the scene.
Yes but a front surface mirror ( the mirror is on the front of the glass not behind it ) is best. If you are going to take a photo of yourself in a mirror you have to place the camera at an angel where the camera sees you in the mirror and you see the camera not yourself. So place the camera at a 45 degree angle to the mirror and place yourself opposite of it. look at the camera, set the timer and let it go or use a long shutter release if the camera is designed for it. Of course those of us who carry rangefinders, SLRs or TLRs have been taking photos with mirrors for years.
I'm guessing this questioner meant "Why do mirrors reverse, etc."That's the well known phenomenon of "lateral inversion" of the image in a flatmirror.This is the basic explanation:1) The mirror reverses the object in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the mirror. That's all it does. The mirror has no effect on left and right or on up and down.2) However, we usually find it hard to notice this "front to back" inversion. That results in us "seeing" the image as reversed from left to right.
