I usually use one of those techniques to really see what something looks like. 1) I stand back from the mirror and look without my glasses. This blurs everything and lets me see better. 2) I use one of those magnifying tubes from the hardware store that goes into your door to see people on the other side, but look at a mirror through the reverse end, which reduces. And, of course, 3) take a pic with a camera!shamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070023218199309005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4920875739028519515.post-90036927006636109212012-08-03T04:37:49.493-07:002012-08-03T04:37:49.493-07:00Oh, fun and action shots to boot!
