Seeing double while exploring the Stanford campus

by Linda Hubbard Gulker on February 19, 2019

This photograph by InMenlo co-founder and skilled photographer Scott Loftesness was taken yesterday as he strolled around the Stanford campus.

Scott explains: “It’s a tweaked photo, edited on my iPhone using Adobe’s excellent Photoshop Express app (which includes an easy to use reflection feature — along with a slew of other editing features).

“The photo was shot in the Stanford Quad just across from Memorial Church using my iPhone Xs Max. I was out for a walk when I came through the portal and looked right to spot this model. Fun!”
