Recognizing photos is different from recognizing the faces of people you meetin real life. Photos are easier because the people in them are wearing the same clothes and are in the same pose as the first time you saw them. If only people would always wear the same clothes, I'd find it much easier to remember their faces.

My recognition score was 75% which is much higher than I could achieve with real people. (My temporal score was 50%)

Did anyone else think that the succession of faces was kind of creepy?
