"Katherine"

凯瑟琳 is the Chinese phonetic translation of English name "Katherine". The owner has submitted a mirrored photo to Shannon Larratt and BMEzine.com, plus the last character is incorrectly done.

    Just out of curiosity, how do you know the photo was mirrored and not the tattoo?

    I was told by Shannon Larrett, owner of BMEzine.com, in an email when I asked him if he had any background information about the photo/tattoo and its owner.

    It is also possible that the tattoo was done mirrored and the owner tried to cover it up by claiming the photograph was mirrored.

    This type of thing has happened before:
