A Mirror Image (in a plane mirror) is a reflected duplication of an object that appears almost identical, but is reversed in the direction perpendicular to the mirror surface. As an optical effect it results from reflection off from substances such as a mirror or water. It is also a concept in geometry and can be used as a conceptualization process for 3-D structures.
Two-dimensional mirror images can be seen in the reflections of mirrors or other reflecting surfaces, or on a printed surface seen inside-out. If we first look at an object that is effectively two-dimensional (such as the writing on a card) and then turn the card to face a mirror, the object turns through an angle of 180° and we see a left-right reversal in the mirror. In this example, it is the change in orientation rather than the mirror itself that causes the observed reversal.
Another example is when we stand with our backs to the mirror and face an object that's in front of the mirror. Then we compare the object with its reflection by turning ourselves 180°, towards the mirror. Again we perceive a left-right reversal due to a change in our orientation. So, in these examples the mirror does not actually cause the observed reversals.
The Winter Palace was the official residence of the Russian Emperors from 1732 to 1917. Today, the palace and its precincts form the Hermitage Museum. Situated between Palace Embankment and Palace Square, in Saint Petersburg, adjacent to the site of Peter the Great's original Winter Palace, the present and fourth Winter Palace was built and altered almost continuously between the late 1730s and 1837, when it was severely damaged by fire and immediately rebuilt. The storming of the palace in 1917, as depicted in Soviet propaganda art and Sergei Eisenstein's 1927 film October, became an iconic symbol of the Russian Revolution.
As completed, the overriding exterior form of the Winter Palace's architecture, with its decoration in the form of statuary and opulent stucco work on the pediments above façades and windows, is Baroque. The exterior has remained as finished during the reign of Empress Elizabeth. The principal façades, those facing the Palace Square and the Neva river, have always been accessible and visible to the public. Only the lateral façades are hidden behind granite walls, concealing a garden created during the reign of Nicholas II. The building was conceived as a town palace, rather than a private palace within a park, such as that of the French kings at Versailles.
The palace was constructed on a monumental scale that was intended to reflect the might and power of Imperial Russia. From the palace, the Tsar ruled over 22,400,000 square kilometers (8,600,000 sq mi) (almost 1/6 of the Earth's landmass) and over 125 million subjects by the end of the 19th century. It was designed by many architects, most notably Bartolomeo Rastrelli, in what came to be known as the Elizabethan Baroque style. The green-and-white palace has the shape of an elongated rectangle, and its principal façade is 215 metres (705 ft) long and 30 m (98 ft) high. The Winter Palace has been calculated to contain 1,886 doors, 1,945 windows, 1,500 rooms and 117 staircases. Following a serious fire, the palace's rebuilding of 1837 left the exterior unchanged, but large parts of the interior were redesigned in a variety of tastes and styles, leading the palace to be described as a "19th-century palace inspired by a model in Rococo style".

Got my Magic Mirror Keira in yesterday - after a long wait. Wasn't sure I'd be able to bond with her 'cause she refused the wig and eyes I'd set aside for her. Instead she decided to embrace her foxy-side and opted for a pair of orange EDs and a auburn wig... now she's my little thief :)

Oh I had so much fun doing these two! The cat was an added bonus since he wasn't invited to the photo. I was inspired by this OaM photo... www.flickr.com/photos/92937885@N00/1698734056/

Main Street, Disneyana. 'Doubly Sure' by Joe Yakovetic. Original artwork, $10,000. Reverse side, with portrait of the Evil Queen holding the heart box for the Huntsman.
I visited Disneyland on Sunday March 6, 2016. It was mostly sunny, with a light crowd. I got a few newly released items, most of which I hadn't known about beforehand. At the World of Disney, they had the several new OE pins, including the Alice in Wonderland Drink Me Bottle pin ($11.99), the Cinderella Glass Slipper Sculpted Pin ($13.99) and the Baby Anna and Elsa 2 Pin Set ($13.99). In the World of Disney and the Main Street Emporium, they had the BB-8 spinning keychain, with light and sound effects ($12.99). Before I left Disneyland, I checked the Emporium, and they were already sold out of the BB-8 keychains, only about two hours after I bought mine.
Disneyana had a new original artwork on display. It was called 'Doubly Sure' by Joe Yakovetic. It had the Magic Mirror from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and a replica of the Snow White storybook. On the other side is a portrait of the Evil Queen, holding the heart box. It is for sale for $10,000. I have a copy of the Evil Queen portrait as a gallery wrapped giclee on canvas. The Disney Gallery (next to Disneyana) has an exhibit on Disney's railroads. It included information and photos of Disney's personal 1/8 scale model railroad, and the railroads at Disneyland and Walt Disney World. There are also some artwork on Disney's railroads for sale in Disneyana. I got the #1 score at Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters. I ate lunch at the Plaza Inn and left the park shortly thereafter.
