I'm 18 years old. Am I receding? (Photo)

Akbot
I would like to know if I am receding , or maturing in the hairline . my hair is indeed wet in this picture in natural lighting ; I figure it would give a better judgement. Could hormone imbalance cause such a thing in a specific area ? My hairline has always been at this height however the corners look to be thin. Also my hair texture is extremely different from my father, would that make a difference in the extent of hair loss ? Ps my hair is combed in back direction.
