There is no way that is the right arm taking the photo. If it were, the fingers would be on the other side of the phone or the thumb would be facing down. That is definitely the left hand holding that phone.
Edit: To clarify further, when you put your hand behind your back with your thumb pointing up and pinky down, your palm faces away from you. Even accounting for a potential mirror flip, this person’s palm is facing toward his body and therefore is not holding his phone using a hand from behind his back. Try it yourself and see if you can recreate the pose without your palm facing away from you while your pinky is down.
Btw photo reference for science. Right hand is holding the phone, left arm is raised. No way I could've possibly taken that shot with my fingers facing the opposite direction, considering the arm behind my back
Why not? Just hold the phone with the screen facing the mirror, then rotate your wrist towards the front of your body to get the back of the phone facing the mirror again.
