IS REAL IMAGES ALWAYS INVERTED?

A real image is always inverted. This is easy to understand. The real image is on the opposite side of the lens from the object. Visualize what happens to any ray that comes from a point on the object that is not on the optical axis and passes through the center of the lens. It continues in the same direction and so ends up on the other side of the optical axis; thus it's inverted. eg:-convex lens(When the object is  placed beyond the focus)
