Think about a telescope -
you have to have at least two lenses for the light to bounce off to turn it upside down.
Do I even know what I'm talking about?

lenses are funny things
and work slightly differently from mirrors.
backwards from them, in fact :)

Actually I've got it ..
it's to do with the plane the mirror is in - ie on a wall it reverses in the horizontal plane... lay it on the floor and it reverses in the vertical plane - which is why mountains look upside down when you see them reflected in a lake. That is all. Thank you.
