Sometimes when you look into a curved mirror you see a magnified image (a great big you!) and sometimes you see a diminished image (a little you). If you look at the bottom (convex) side of a shiny spoon, what will you see?

A) You will either see a little you or a great big you, depending on how near you are to the spoon. B) You will see a little you, upside down. C) You will see a little you, right side up. D) You won't see an image of yourself because no image will be formed. E) You will see a little you, but whether you are right side up or upside down depends on how near you are to the spoon.
