Take another look Sharon, he's not backwards - its only the background thats reversed. You've got me puzzled Mike - why reverse the background?

Hi all.

To make his other arm the photo is mirror imaged and then
the required section brought over to take the place of the missing arm, this also mirror images the background, of course
I could have also brought the background over as well, but I
reckon the person being the focal point was more important!.
 ;)

Saddler,
   why not just mirror the arm?

Thank you for your replies  :D I have had quite a laugh here  ;D

Denn I think the background is a fake. The photo looks as if it was taken in a photographer's studio.

Here is the full wedding party. Taken Farnworth Lancs Sept 1929.

Thanks Gem

That's fine Gem, in isolation it looks almost real. I feel such a fool having seen the original.
