Spoon Reflections


For some wierd reason, people around the world are now asking, "Why is my reflection upside down on the top side of a spoon? "

I looked further into it and found out that the spoon acts as a concave mirror. This means when an object is beyond the length of focus on a concave mirror the image is reduced in size and inverted. So when you look into a spoon, that's what you see. Try it! Look at your reflection on the top side of a spoon, it's upside down, then look at it on the bottom side and you're right side up!
