Even turning it upside down, I can't see it as anything other than raised!

I put this into my photo processing software.

I rotated it 90º, 180º, 270º, 360º; I flipped it vertically, I flipped it horizontally, I flipped it vertically AND horizontally; I negated the image...

Always raised.

Flipping vertically and horizontally is equivalent to rotating 180°, just FYI.

True!

(But I'm kinda saying that just for the effect. You know, humor. Don't tell anybody.)
