Mayan Light Beam Photo: Message from Gods, or iPhone Glitch?
- duskwuff 15y agoProbably a result of the iPhone camera's rolling shutter, combined with a very brief flash of light. You get similar craziness when you try to take pictures of objects moving at high speed, like airplane propellors: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tuaw.com/media/2010/08/blades-1282772892.jpg http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tuaw.com/media/2010/08/blades-128...
- bunderbunder 15y agoI used to do a lot of work with collections of digital images taken outdoors under all sorts of conditions, not entirely unlike what I suspect the raw Google Streetview data is like. Pictures with that particular image artifact that weren't a message from the gods. They were an annoyance. A constant annoyance.
