When an object is moved from the center of curvature towards the focal point of a concave mirror, its image remains real and becomes larger. This is because the image formed by a concave mirror is real, inverted, and located on the same side as the object when the object is placed beyond the focal point. As the object approaches the focal point, the image moves away from the mirror and increases in size.
