illusion of body language

Upon looking at Figure 2, I noted that the faces in the left column appear to be tipped back in comparison to the center column faces, as if in arrogance. Similarly, the faces in the right column appear to be tipped forward in comparison to those in the center column, as if in confidence. Could an illusion of body language be conveyed by the still images?
