Imagine you’re going to take a picture of your loved ones on holiday, of a famous celebrity or politician at an event, or simply just a photo for a random stranger – the first thing we are innately programmed to do after taking a picture is quickly inspect it for our double chin, fat rolls and accidentally closed eyes: the last thing you expect however, is to catch something completely out of the ordinary in your snap…
