One of the things that always gets me is how much difference there can be even when the subject is known.

For instance the two pictures shown, the distance between the eyes compared to the distance between the mouth and eyes is different. I wouldn't think that's something that would change especially over only three years, but there it is.

It's a good thing I don't have to rely on my abilities in this field. I'd probably starve.
