in cognition, it's said that people will usually find it hard to recognise faces which are not in the upright orientation, even if they are familiar ones. it's like looking at a photo which is upside down, you will find it pretty hard to identify people faces (disregard hairstyles and clothes)
today, by chance i tested this out with a familiar face which is oriented 90degree anti-clockwise, appearing for perhaps 1-2 secs. just the face only, and i thought it was some boliao little girl. it's true.
