Mirror or non-mirror, which is more like yourself?

Non-mirror image is more like yourself.

You in the mirror are three-dimensional images of the same size as you in reality, but you in the photo have turned the three-dimensional image into a reduced two-dimensional image. So you have different degrees of distortion under different lenses, so these photos don't look so real. In addition, the current camera is more and more advanced, which is distorted for you in practice.

Matters needing attention

Similarly, as a photo, the photo taken by your friend may be very different from that taken by a professional photographer, because the photographer should consider the light, angle, distance and your movements, which will affect the quality of the photo.

At the same time, the camera takes static images, so when others take pictures of you, you may not know what you really look like at that time, so it is easy to enlarge the shortcomings and produce many expression packs. But in front of the mirror, you can look at the mirror and adjust your manners to present it in the best state.
