Oooh focal length. I was like "those hair are not 20 mm" for a moment.

Wow I had no idea

It's important to note that it's the subject distance that's the primary factor, not the focal length. The focal length is secondary in that it dictates how far you would be to achieve the given framing. If you shoot the picture at 200 mm from the example and then without moving you shoot again at 20, you'll have the same perspective, just way smaller subject in the frame; if you then crop in the picture shot at 20, you'll have the same framing too, just way less pixels.

If you're half a metre away from the dude's nose, you'll be roughly 60 cm away from his ears (20% more distance), but if you're 5 metres away from his nose, you'll be 5.10 m away from his ears (only 2% more distance) - and this is what creates the difference in apparent sizes of the facial features relative to one another.

I get this reference and it’s excellent

that actually makes a lot of sense, thank you ILikeBoobies

I can't tell them apart because I only have 1 Donald Glover friend. I guess I need to get to know more of them.

I couldn't find a polite way to ask him to introduce me to more Donald Glovers.

"so are you chinese or japanese?"

I thought it was crazy they also had that kid from Community on. That kids going places, I swear.

Pretty sure he's younger in the right. So it's just he got older.

Age

It could just be the focal length of the camera lens too.

good explanation of focal length and face shape

And writer*

Huh, I never knew the word for it. Thank you.

My wife has said many times, to me and others, that she thinks I have a form of face blindness. I don't think I do.

It came up because every time someone said something like "doesn't X look like Y when they were little?", and I'd respond that I don't see it. So many people say my kids are a splitting image of me... Nope, I don't see that.

I recognise people I know in photos, new or old photos, usually without issue.

I do however often think an actor is someone they aren't. "Hey, is that the person from this other movie", my wife: "what?! No! They don't even look alike". And sometimes I'll ask her if a random person looks like this or that person, usually with the same response, sometimes a strange look and "are you feeling ok?".

Anyway, these guys should team up on a project. /s

If somebody tolled me the left is an older picture of the person on the right...

That's literally what this is. That's the joke.

Not sure if trolling, but it's the same dude..

Not to kink shame, but they should do that sort of thing in private.

It's Eddie Murphy without a fat suit
