Spooky shit.

Actually this makes a lot of sense. I see a view of myself most often when I am looking in the mirror, which I do every day getting ready for work, etc. I only see myself as other see me when I look at a photograph of myself. Therefore a reverse image of myself is going to seem more natural than a normal photo.
