"So what did you get?" Your mom asks you on the way home. "Just this camera. I'm not sure, but I think there's something strange about it." you inspect the old camera, turning it over. "Why? What's so strange?" Your mother asks, breaking for a red traffic light. You decide to do a little experiment again.

You say, pointing at them with the camera. First you snap a picture of the woman, then of the homeless guy. You instantly see them change. Now the homeless guy is wearing a custom made suit and ranting on his telephone, while the woman is cloth all in rags, holding a sign asking for spare change. "There! Did you see that!" Your mother glances over "See what dear? It's just a businessman and a woman down on her luck." You sigh "Come on, I just changed them with this camera, pay attention will ya? Here, let me show you again." You take pictures of the two people again, reverting them to their original state. "Now look again, what do you see?" "It's still the homeless guy and the business lady. What are you getting at John?" She looks at you worriedly, then quickly turns her head back to the road as the car behind you honks his horn. "I know, I'm going..."

Maybe only you are aware of the changes, or maybe you're just seeing things.
