WARNING
The sense of distance that you get
from an object you see on the inner
side of the mirror boundary line
differs from the sense of distance that
you get from an object you see on the
outer side.
An object you see on the outer side of
the boundary line of the mirror will
look farther away than it actually is
(farther away than if you see in a nor-
mal flat mirror) as compared with an
object you see on the inner side.
