    I think I experienced a similar natural phenomenon to this.
    I was about 14, sitting in my bedroom one winter day when I noticed 2 mini crisp shadows walking across my wall. They were so crisp and clear that I could see strands of hair and the clothes wrinkle as they walked. It remind me of those old school projectors we had in school.
    I figure it was due to the sun casting thier shadows onto the snow covered ground and then reflecting into my bedroom window. But never understood how they appeared so sharp and clear. This makes it make sense now

    • @FaithG-s1f
      @FaithG-s1f 2 месяца назад

      Our eyes do the exact same thing a pinhole camera does. Projects an image to the back of our eye through a tiny hole (pupil). Then our brain does the work of flipping the image to make sense to us. In a camera, the flip happens manually, with printing or how the camera is built.
      Images can only be projected upside down because an image is only light particles bouncing perfectly off a surface. Look up how light and eyes work, its very good info :)

      He said to pick a north-facing window, so the sun is on the opposite side of the house as much as possible. The sun should be shining directly on what you are trying to capture through the camera obscura, but not into the room itself. Being on the equator would actually make this a lot easier, because you could use a south-facing window as well.

      No, lenses still see "upside down." The only reason we see images the way our eyes see them is because on something like an SLR, there's a mirror or prism showing us such through a viewfinder. On digital cameras, the firmware is programmed to show it on the back screen.

    This is the technique that was used in order to create the shroud of Turin. It was a cleverly made photograph made during the renaissance as follows: the shroud was covered with a light sensitive chemical made of silver and it was placed within a camera oscura. The subject on the image of the shroud was standing outside the wall. The shroud was then exposed twice to light, one for the body and another one for the face. In that way, the face will be proportional and not elongated due to the large focal point which caused a significant curvature on the longitudinal extremes of the image. However, such distortion did affect the overall image and can be noticed on the feet of the subject, as the feet are not proportional but elongated due to this field curvature. Overall, the shroud of Turin is the oldest photograph in the world and should be displayed in a science museum.

    Yup, optics and wavelength-physics.
    Add two magnifying glasses with a regular sheet of paper and you have a telescope to peep on your neighbors without them noticing an actual telescope in your window. Isn't that a freaky thought!?... anyway, instead of covering the window and using a white bedsheet, set one magnifying glass on a table facing the window, stand a sheet of (white) paper behind the magnifying glass, you might notice 'something' on the paper when it's not too far, nor too close to the magnifying glass. Now, use your other magnifying glass to "adjust the focus" on your sheet of paper. The darker the room, the brighter the image. To improve the visibility of the image, you can cover the home-made telescope with a thick dark as possible (light-blocking) linen/clothing such as a blanket or your coat/jacket and look at the image by putting your head under the linen/clothing. You adjust the focus by adjusting the position of the paper and magnifying glass. This set-up makes it a bit difficult to see the moon and stars straight up, but you can see daylight images of whatever is outside the window. If the window image is too small on the paper, move the whole table closer to the window. When you have your clearest image, note the distance between the paper and magnifying glasses and then set-up a styrofoam to hold your apparatus up and enjoy hands free. Painting the styrofoam matte black will help with image clarity. The less light pollution, the clearer the image. Just like a real telescope.
    Bring the whole telescope closer to the window and you can cover the window, around the telescope's range of view, to reduce ambiant light inside even more. If the room is completely dark (hardly possible), you don't even need to cover the images.
    I've done this in college physics class on a bright sunny day, sun overhead and slightly behind, and windows were completely uncovered. No funds for blinds lol. It still worked. Point the camera north in the northern hemisphere and south if you're in the southern hemisphere.
    Putting a question out. Would this trick work in outerspace?
