Neither of them. The way human eye sees the world is completely different from the image you see on the photo and mirror. First of all, the plane mirror reverses the image. It reverses letters and words the same way it does with your face. Also remember that the mirror is an image of something else, so it carries some distortion. It also unshapes your face. On the other hand, the photo shows third-dimension objects on a two-dimension surface. So, the image on the photo is unreal if compared to human eye and it is also distorted from reality. As you will never see yourself, try to understand how people happen to see you.

To take a clear picture of an image in a mirror should the camera be focused on the image or the mirror?

An image in a mirror is a "virtual" image which takes on certain characteristics. One of these characteristics is that the apparent distance is equal to the distance from the observer to the mirror plus the distance from the mirror to the subject. If the observer and subject are the same, then the apparent distance is twice that of the subject to the mirror. If the observer is 3 feet from the mirror and the subject is 20 feet away, the apparent distance is 23 feet. If you focus on the subject and have distance markings on your lens, you can prove this to yourself.


Can you take a photograph of your image in a plane mirror and focus the camera on both your image and the mirror frame?

Only if you are using a pinhole camera.If you reduce the aperture you will increase the depth of focus, but you can't decrease the aperture to a pinhole on most cameras.

What is the true mirror phenomenon and how does it affect our perception of ourselves?

The true mirror phenomenon is when a mirror reflects our image as others see us, rather than the reversed image we are used to seeing. This can affect our perception of ourselves by showing us a more accurate representation of how we appear to others, which may challenge our self-perception and lead to a greater understanding of our true appearance.


How does a concave mirror can form a real image which is a copy of an object that forms .?

A concave mirror can form a real image that is a copy of an object through reflection. When parallel rays of light converge towards the focal point of the concave mirror, they intersect and form a real image that is upside-down and a true representation of the object.


What image formed by a plane mirror?

Why can a mirror produce a clear image?

think of a really shiney piece of silver... if you look in it you'll see your reflection pretty clear right? well if you have a really expensive and nice mirror than usually it will have polished silver covered in glass as the mirror. so basically all you have to do is have a shiney piece of metal (preferably silver) and polish it so you can see yourself... and there you go... a clear image.

Is the distance from the object to the mirror is less than the apparent from the image?

The distance from the object to the mirror is equal to the distance from the image to the mirror in a plane mirror. The image appears to be as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of it, so the apparent distance from the image to the mirror is equal to the actual distance from the object to the mirror.


Is it plain mirror or concave mirror producing magnified real image?

A plane (flat) mirror reflects an image which is the same size and shape, and colour as the object in front of the mirror. A concave mirror can produce a magnified image. If the image is in front of the mirror it is a real image; if behind it is a virtual (non-real) image. A real image can be cast upon a white the best) surface


Images formed by a plane mirror?

A plane mirror forms 1 virtual image and no real image. The virtual image is behind the mirror, at the same distance as the object in front of the mirror, erect, in mirror image left-right.


Is the image of yourself in the mirror the real image?

No, an image formed in a mirror is unreal, because mirror reflects all the light rays off.
