poetry is a mirror which makes beautiful that which is distorted. - Percy Bysshe Shelley

nobody really knows what they look like. the mirror shows you only what you want to see. - Terry Wogan

Nicely done - I think what you see in the mirror depends on how you look. If I look straight on I see 'me' whereas if I look out of the corner of my eye, I'm always amazed to find my father looking back at me!

Anyone who can quote Terry Wogan is a friend of mine! I like this, it has an enigmatic quality.

I'm not really in agreement with Terry Wogan on this matter, but what I see in the mirror certainly relates to how I feel about myself on any given day. I see here, two beautiful portraits - so I'm with @henrir on this one.

@summerfield beautiful portrait Vikki, lovely lighting... I love that second quote though, but it makes me think more of the facial recognition piece of it. Have you heard of the 'true mirror' where you see yourself the 'right' way (without the flip)? I hear you look at yourself very differently!

@kerosene caroline, I do think you look different when the photo is flipped in the mirror, so we need to use two mirror images to see what we really look like. Smile.

Nicely done, Ms. S., and nice quotes, too! You always have a great taste.

@kerosene Love this image (Vikki!) and knew there would be some interesting comments! I think the camera captures our true image that we don't see, and we're not always able to compensate how it comes out as we do as we look into a mirror!

Interesting discussion!
