Here's one to keep you up at night.

At first glance, it seems normal. But look closer and you'll see that it is a picture of my daughter playing on the swings with her father, who appears as a small child! How can it be?!? He was 30 when she was born! Spoooooooky.

Depth perception. And a wide-angle lens.

Maybe.

I like the pic. It does have an unreal quality since everything is in focus. I like the composition etc. This is just a guess but it looks like you did some compositing (photoshop) and pasted in the palm-tree backdrop and added the daddy image on the swing. I like it though.

Actually I pasted my daughter into the existing pic of my husband as a little boy. It was actually his mom in the picture swinging with him but I erased her.

You erased his mom? I think he's going to have some PTSD from that.

I posted something about your script in my for quetee thread, you might want to go and look at it, it's just a couple of lines, positive lines.

Queenie - was he wearing those clothes or did they change in the photo? I especially like the red socks!

Yeah, it does look strange, but he's a good 15 feet behind her, and depth perception comes into play more in some cameras than in others, depending on the lens. What kind of camera was it?

I wish I knew what camera took that picture. Every photo he has in his family album from that camera have this eerie flat postcard look to them. I called his mom and asked her but she doesn't remember. I wish I knew, they are some of the neatest, weirdest photos I've seen.
