Martha Stewart has been accused of Photoshopping her vacation photos after fans spotted a bizarre detail in one of the pictures.
The 83-year-old homemaking expert spent Christmas in Namibia and has been sharing plenty of updates on Instagram from her adventures in Africa.
On Monday, she posted some snaps of herself posing next to some rock formations in western Namibia - but many people noticed something rather unusual about the first photo and wondered if it had been edited.
Martha, who was dressed in a pair of loose-fitting khaki pants and a matching long-sleeved top by designer Suzie Kondi, posed with one hand in her pocket and the other against the rock - but her left hand was nowhere to be seen.
'Martha, your hand...' one person commented, while another asked: 'Martha, where is your hand?'
A third person repeated: 'Where is your left hand?' and a fourth said: 'I think Martha is missing hand.'
Someone else commented: 'Love you Martha! And your missing hand,' while another queried: 'Where did your hand go?'

A different person accused: 'NO left hand/arm?? Photoshop. Shame,' as another claimed: 'Well, another demolishing Photoshop bye.'
One other Instagram user simply wrote: 'That left arm is mysterious.'
Others, however, insisted that the star didn't alter the photo.
They suggested that it was simply an 'optical illusion' and her hand was out of view because it was behind the rock formation.
'It’s behind the rock,' someone replied, while another agreed, 'Seems like the rock she’s leaning on is hidden by the rock that’s visible in the picture. Cool optical illusion.'
Some people were quick to compliment Martha's appearance as one said: 'You look incredible Martha!'
And another person told her: 'Wow you look GREAT rocks are pretty cool too!'
Martha also posted a photo of the helicopter she'd been on to see the Skeleton Coast.

The billionaire spent New Year's Eve tucking in to plenty of caviar and creme fraiche
She explained to her 2.5 million followers: 'We spent two hours touring the west coast of Namibia flying low over beautiful terrain quite populated with elephant, giraffe, seals, flamingos, even lions!
'And the landscape - sand castles! Rock formations palm trees.'
Martha, pictured in on December 13 last year, released her very own documentary on Netflix a few months ago
The mother-of-one, who recently gave people a glimpse into her personal life with her very own Netflix documentary, appeared to be back in New York City to ring in the new year.
Posting a close up of several containers of caviar, she wrote: 'Happy New Year to all of you and thank you for a very great year 2024 and hopefully an even better 2025.'
'Thanks especially to @blackdiamondcaviar, @roe caviar, @kenfulkinc (gift of yummy osetra),' she added, referring to a Brooklyn-based company.
Her fans were quick to send their well wishes as one person wrote: 'Happy New Year Martha. Cheers to the best year yet for you. You are queen.'
Another said: 'Happy New Year! So happy to have you for inspiration! Wishing you health and happiness in the new year!'
And a third wrote: 'Happy New Year! Many more projects and gardening adventures.'
