Hello. This has nothing to do with vanity and is just a science question!! I have noticed that I look different in practically every video or photo I look at. It can practically be different people sometimes. I have been told that cameras etc..not only mirror the image but can fatten people too. Mirrors mirror an image as the name of them suggests so apparantley dont show the true you (at least as others see you). I have been told of a trick of putting two mirrors at a 90 degree angle to each other and to stare at the gap in between to see the true image as others see you from their perspective. Is this true and does it work? Are there any special cameras etc or photographic tricks that can do this? I realise it is impossible to see yourself objectively anyway but as stated before I am only interested in the purely technical/scientific aspect of this nothing else! thanks
