Camera Phone Image
This photo is all over the internet & it`s unclear if it`s ever been examined by a photographic expert. Real or fake, it`s a great conversation piece.
This photo was taken in Eastwood City in Manila. The two girls asked someone to take their picture with their Nokia 7250 camera phone. After snapping the picture, this is what appeared in the screen of the phone. On the right side of the picture is a blurred image of someone grabbing onto one of the girl`s arm.
A phone doesn`t use film, so if this is a double exposure, it would have to be manufactured on a computer. Considering that the entire photo is slightly blurry, that makes it entirely possible. But the rest of the photo isn`t as blurry as the image itself, which makes that theory questionable.
It is possible to make an image blurry on a camera phone by running out of the view of the camera quickly, but you would only have about a half second to do that, making that possibility also questionable. Not to mention that the blurred image would be appearing to run out of the picture, rather than standing still as it is. It would be very hard to accomplish that.
If this is a fake, the only other possibility is that this wasn`t a cameraphone at all. Perhaps it was taken with a camera using a long exposure. The world may never know.
