Flip

Quick Tip: When you shoot into a mirror, for your next Facebook avatar (go on, admit it, you’ve done this shot), then you get a mirror image – which is incorrect (eg you cannot read any text in the image, and faces look very different, since we are not totally symmetrical).

The fix is simple: in Lightroom, go to the DEVELOP module and use function Photo – Flip Horizontal:

Now your image is true.

You can now read the writing on the front of my lens.
