When one looks into a mirror, one see an image of himself....

When raising one's right hand, the image raises its left. When raising one's left, the image raises its right.

So, why is it that the mirror reverses left and right, but not top and bottom? Why does a mirror appear to invert the left-right directions, but not up-down?

the projection is actualy back to front( considering only the "pixels that one projects on the mirror surface), because of that and the fact that the brain interprets the image in a logical way(it thinks that it sees the object, not the projection) the brain allso thinks that the image is reversed, the same thing dosen't happen on any other plane!!!!!!
