As to my knowledge mirrors reflect the same stuff that u have and John knows that he used the mirror for "combing". John knows that mirrors never show him anything different from his true appearance. so D

D is correct. Only John sees himself in mirror.

Interesting question ..made me laugh actually ....I though A B D all are top contenders . But on the test day , I would probably give D . But wait ..isnt a flash will make picture more clear and visible. B? . Whatever!

I didn't get this one. Although D does make a lot of sense now that you put it that way.
I was able to elminate ABC.
A is currently stated as so: It, unlike the other photographs of John, showed him in the style of dress he and his friends usually wear rather than the formal clothes he wore at the ceremony.
If A were stated the opposite way: the picture showed him in the style dress he wore at the ceremony rather than the style dress he wore around his friends, THEN maybe A could be correct.
B and C don't explain why his friends have a different opinion.
I was stuck btwn E and D.

Strange question really. But it has to be D - the only image with which John is familiar but his friends aren't.
