Just a thought.

It always appears to me that my image in the mirror is different from that in any of my photographs. It could be for the good or for the worse. At some occasions the image in the mirror is better and at some the photos.
But for any one else it is the same. They look the same to me in person as in their photos.
After hours of thought I have come up with many reasons, but the the one I found the closest to my heart is this :
My image in the mirror is the way I see myself, whereas the photograph is somebody else' perception of me!

Photograph is just a moment in the past. It is past tense, but the reflection in the mirror is the present. Even as I analyse it, it has replaced itself with the latest version. My mind is not even given enough time to retain a copy, it has to work on the continuously updating images.
