In this tutorial, we’ll be looking at the different ways you can learn how to flip an image in Photoshop. While Photshop is often thought about as an advanced photo editor, it’s great for simple tasks as well, thanks to its automation tools like actions or even just keyboard shortcuts.
So whether you need to flip one image or 100, Photoshop is a great choice!
If you’re looking at how to flip an image horizontally in Photoshop, then the most basic way is to go to Image > Image Rotation.
Here you can flip your image one of four ways: horizontally, vertically, 180 degrees, and 90 degrees both clockwise and counterclockwise.
This will flip the entire Canvas. So if you have multiple layers, they will flip as well.
How to Flip a Layer in Photoshop
To flip only one layer in Photoshop, and not the entire Canvas, select the Transform tool, click on one of the white Anchor Points surrounding the image, and choose either Horizontal, vertical, or Rotate 180 degrees and 90 degrees both clockwise and counterclockwise.
If you’re likely to only flip part of an image or layer, you can use the Content Aware Move tool found under the Spot Healing Brush tool.
Create a Selection around the object you’d like to flip.
Right-Click > Flip Horizontally and then use the Transform Anchor Points to adjust the object if needed.
Finally, remove the selection. Photoshop will fill and replace any gaps
How to Mirror an Image in Photoshop
If you want to learn how to mirror flip an image in Photoshop, creating a water or lake reflection effect, it’s fairly quick.
First, Right-click > Duplicate your image layer. And we want to select the Transform tool and Rich-click > Flip Vertical the duplicate. Now we can pull the duplicate layer down slightly, bringing it lower on the canvas.
Now we want to delete any overlapping image using the Rectangular Marquee tool.
Once you create a square selection around the excess slipped layer, hit delete. You can use the Move tool to adjust the positioning of both layers, so that they align correctly.
How to Rotate an Image in Photoshop
Alternatively, when the Free Transform tool is active, you can hover your mouse over one of the corner Anchor Points. The mouse will change into a curved arrow icon.
From here you can click and drag to freely rotate the layer in any direction.
How to Rotate the Canvas in Photoshop
However, if you want to only rotate the canvas temporarily, not the images or layers, then you can use the Rotate tool. The Rotate tool can be found by Right-clicking the Hand tool.
To use the Rotate tool, simply click and drag either left or right to rotate the canvas.
To reset the canvas, you can double-click the Rotate tool or click the Reset View button in the Options bar while the Rotate tool is active.
Keep in mind the Rotate tool is not personally affecting your layers; it’s only rotating the view of your canvas.
Checking Your Results for any Giveaways
When flipping or rotating an image on a Photoshop document with multiple layers, there are two things you want to watch out for if you don’t want people to know that you edited or flipped an image.
Words & Numbers
The most important thing you want to scan your photo for before flipping it is anything that might have letters, numbers, or even a recognizable symbol on it.
Flipped letters and numbers are a clear give away that a photo has been flipped, and, while they can be easy to spot in places like signs and clothes, you’ll also want to keep an eye out for things like tattoos or even smaller details like jewelry.
Logos
While many logos are the same whether they are flipped left or right, some famous logos have a very specific orientation that will be a glaring error if flipped. The Nike logo is a great example, even without the “Just do it.” tag line.
Famous Landmarks
Along the same lines as numbers, words and logos, it can become incredibly problematic if an image of a famous landmark is flipped, as the area is recognizable.
Well-Known Faces
Due to the asymmetry of faces, they can actually look very different once flipped horizontally. If a face is well-known, it may even come off as unrecognizable, or at least noticeably different.
Conclusion
That is how to flip an image in Photoshop! While Photoshop may seem like too much of a powerful tool to do such a simple task, it also gives you the ability to make multiple, little changes at once. Maybe you need to flip an image, but also remove a distracting detail. Photoshop is a great tool to learn to master, no matter how small the edits you need to make.

That again was no use: he but got another smile and a friendly look of the sort he no longer wanted. I said I thought I could gallop if Harry could, and in a few minutes we were up with the ambulance. It had stopped. There were several men about it, including Sergeant Jim and Kendall, which two had come from Quinn, and having just been in the ambulance, at Ferry's side, were now remounting, both of them openly in tears. "Hello, Kendall." We have this great advantage in dealing with Plato—that his philosophical writings have come down to us entire, while the thinkers who preceded him are known only through fragments and second-hand reports. Nor is the difference merely accidental. Plato was the creator of speculative literature, properly so called: he was the first and also the greatest artist that ever clothed abstract thought in language of appropriate majesty and splendour; and it is probably to their beauty of form that we owe the preservation of his writings. Rather unfortunately, however, along with the genuine works of the master, a certain number of pieces have been handed down to us under his name, of which some are almost universally admitted to be spurious, while the authenticity of others is a question on which the best scholars are still divided. In the absence of any very cogent external evidence, an immense amount of industry and learning has been expended on this subject, and the arguments employed on both sides sometimes make us doubt whether the reasoning powers of philologists are better developed than, according to Plato, were those of mathematicians in his time. The176 two extreme positions are occupied by Grote, who accepts the whole Alexandrian canon, and Krohn, who admits nothing but the Republic;115 while much more serious critics, such as Schaarschmidt, reject along with a mass of worthless compositions several Dialogues almost equal in interest and importance to those whose authenticity has never been doubted. The great historian of Greece seems to have been rather undiscriminating both in his scepticism and in his belief; and the exclusive importance which he attributed to contemporary testimony, or to what passed for such with him, may have unduly biassed his judgment in both directions. As it happens, the authority of the canon is much weaker than Grote imagined; but even granting his extreme contention, our view of Plato’s philosophy would not be seriously affected by it, for the pieces which are rejected by all other critics have no speculative importance whatever. The case would be far different were we to agree with those who impugn the genuineness of the Parmenides, the Sophist, the Statesman, the Philêbus, and the Laws; for these compositions mark a new departure in Platonism amounting to a complete transformation of its fundamental principles, which indeed is one of the reasons why their authenticity has been denied. Apart, however, from the numerous evidences of Platonic authorship furnished by the Dialogues themselves, as well as by the indirect references to them in Aristotle’s writings, it seems utterly incredible that a thinker scarcely, if at all, inferior to the master himself—as the supposed imitator must assuredly have been—should have consented to let his reasonings pass current under a false name, and that, too, the name of one whose teaching he in some respects controverted; while there is a further difficulty in assuming that his existence could pass unnoticed at a period marked by intense literary and philosophical activity. Readers who177 wish for fuller information on the subject will find in Zeller’s pages a careful and lucid digest of the whole controversy leading to a moderately conservative conclusion. Others will doubtless be content to accept Prof. Jowett’s verdict, that ‘on the whole not a sixteenth part of the writings which pass under the name of Plato, if we exclude the works rejected by the ancients themselves, can be fairly doubted by those who are willing to allow that a considerable change and growth may have taken place in his philosophy.’116 To which we may add that the Platonic dialogues, whether the work of one or more hands, and however widely differing among themselves, together represent a single phase of thought, and are appropriately studied as a connected series. Before entering on our task, one more difficulty remains to be noticed. Plato, although the greatest master of prose composition that ever lived, and for his time a remarkably voluminous author, cherished a strong dislike for books, and even affected to regret that the art of writing had ever been invented. A man, he said, might amuse himself by putting down his ideas on paper, and might even find written178 memoranda useful for private reference, but the only instruction worth speaking of was conveyed by oral communication, which made it possible for objections unforeseen by the teacher to be freely urged and answered.117 Such had been the method of Socrates, and such was doubtless the practice of Plato himself whenever it was possible for him to set forth his philosophy by word of mouth. It has been supposed, for this reason, that the great writer did not take his own books in earnest, and wished them to be regarded as no more than the elegant recreations of a leisure hour, while his deeper and more serious thoughts were reserved for lectures and conversations, of which, beyond a few allusions in Aristotle, every record has perished. That such, however, was not the case, may be easily shown. In the first place it is evident, from the extreme pains taken by Plato to throw his philosophical expositions into conversational form, that he did not despair of providing a literary substitute for spoken dialogue. Secondly, it is a strong confirmation of this theory that Aristotle, a personal friend and pupil of Plato during many years, should so frequently refer to the Dialogues as authoritative evidences of his master’s opinions on the most important topics. And, lastly, if it can be shown that the documents in question do actually embody a comprehensive and connected view of life and of the world, we shall feel satisfied that the oral teaching of Plato, had it been preserved, would not modify in any material degree the impression conveyed by his written compositions. breakfast in the kitchen by candle-light, and then drove the five The bargaining was interminable, something in this manner:— Then follows a long discussion in Hindi with the bystanders, who always escort a foreigner in a mob, ending in the question— There was a bright I. D. blanket spread on the ground a little way back from the fire, and she threw herself down upon it. All that was picturesque in his memories of history flashed back to Cairness, as he took his place beside Landor on the log and looked at her. Boadicea might have sat so in the depths of the Icenean forests, in the light of the torches of the Druids. So the Babylonian queen might have rested in the midst of her victorious armies, or she of Palmyra, after the lion hunt in the deserts of Syria. Her eyes, red lighted beneath the shadowing lashes, met his. Then she glanced away into the blackness of the pine forest, and calling her dog to lie down beside her, stroked its silky red head. The retreat was made, and the men found themselves again in the morning on the bleak, black heath of Drummossie, hungry and worn out, yet in expectation of a battle. There was yet time to do the only wise thing—retreat into the mountains, and depend upon a guerilla warfare, in which they would have the decided advantage. Lord George Murray now earnestly proposed this, but in vain. Sir Thomas Sheridan and other officers from France grew outrageous at that proposal, contending that they could easily beat the English, as they had done at Prestonpans and Falkirk—forgetting that the Highlanders then were full of vigour and spirit. Unfortunately, Charles listened to this foolish reasoning, and the fatal die was cast. "They said they were going for our breakfast," said Harry. "And I hope it's true, for I'm hungrier'n a rip-saw. But I could put off breakfast for awhile, if they'd only bring us our guns. I hope they'll be nice Springfield rifles that'll kill a man at a mile." "Dod durn it," blubbered Pete, "I ain't cryin' bekase Pm skeered. I'm cryin' bekase I'm afeared you'll lose me. I know durned well you'll lose me yit, with all this foolin' around."

Boarzell became theirs, their accomplice in some subtle, beautiful way. There was a little hollow on the western slope where they would crouch together and sniff the apricot scent of the gorse, which was ever afterwards to be the remembrancer of their love, and watch the farmhouse lights at Castweasel gleam and gutter beside Ramstile woods. "Yes, De Boteler," continued the lady, "I will write to him, and try to soothe his humour. You think it a humiliation—I would humble myself to the meanest serf that tills your land, could I learn the fate of my child. The abbot may have power to draw from this monk what he would conceal from us; I will at least make the experiment." The lady then, though much against De Boteler's wish, penned an epistle to the abbot, in which concession and apologies were made, and a strong invitation conveyed, that he would honour Sudley castle by his presence. The parchment was then folded, and dispatched to the abbot. "A very pretty method, truly! You know not the miners and forgers of Dean Forest!—why I would stake a noble to a silver-penny, that if you had discovered he was hidden there, and legally demanded him, he would be popped down in a bucket, to the bottom of some mine, where, even the art of Master Calverley could not have dragged him to the light of day until the Forest was clear of the pack:—but, however, to speak to the point," perceiving that the steward's patience was well nigh exhausted—"I saw Stephen Holgrave yesterday, in the Forest."
