Why does my face look MUCH better in the mirror than in selfies or ID photos?

[Harrisfan]

If you look at yourself for more than 3 seconds you're gay.

[Henk Langeweg]

So true! and not only the face part. Weird.

[Cameroni]

David Bowie looked at himself in the mirror. A lot. 

 

He wasn't gay.

 

He just liked it with a guy now and then.

[GammaGlobulin]

I advise the people I meet to spend less time peering at the mirror.

I do NOT score so very high on the narcissism scale that I would think of questions like this...

 

 

 

Note: You might also try switching to a NORMAL lens, and I am speaking photographically here.

You must be a complete idiot. He's already made it openly clear multiple times that he's gay. And so what that he is? That's his business. The sh*t you write is just so desperate and stupid.

This is probably why apple phones appear to take mirror images rather than photos

A mirror is a 3 D image that is dynamic.

 

A photo is a 2 D snapshot in time.

Thank you

Wow what a complete meltdown

I presume great selfies are mainly a question of the right (expensive) smartphone anf choice of filter...
I.e., I always choose the "Young and handsome"-filter, which seems to work very well... 👍😎 – my selfies are better than how I look in a mirror – and the shared selfies are at least well enough to interest multiple single ladies with cool sexy profile photos wishing to befriend me on Facebook...🥰

Seems to vary on a daily basis when I look in the mirror. Most days I feel I look like a real minger and on a few days look OK. While, if you took 50 pics of me, perhaps one would look OK, in some of the other 49 I’ll be giving the Elephant man a run for his money .

 

Have to look on the bright side, at least most people think I look at least 5 years younger than I do and the Missus still fancies me.🥲

Photos are for others to look at - - mirror mirror is just for you...

[JJ-Thailand]

I'm sure it is an illusion.
My face looks horrible in the mirror as well as in photos. That's why I never take selfies.
 

[mfd101]

In short, a photo objectifies, a mirror subjectifies.

[ujayujay]

My selfies are actually not bad at all.....
