Interesting. Surely the flip photo is what you see in the mirror? I can understand that the flipped photo would look strange to other people but wouldn't it be like looking in the mirror at yourself. Or is it the fact that you know its not a mirror that makes it weird? Tried to find a photo of self to try it but can't find one... plus don't know how to flip.

Photos are how other people see you, If you take a photo that you have taken of someone and flip it - it becomes how that person sees themseleves in a mirror - their most familiar view.
They are more likely to dislike the real photo and like the flipped one - it works very well...try it
