A PHOTO has recently gone viral for making viewers second-guess their eyes.
A photo of a bride that was taken with an iPhone took the internet by storm recently.

In the image, the bride is seen standing in from of a mirror where her reflections didn’t match.
She appears to be in one pose in front of the mirror, but then in her reflection, she depicts a different pose.
This prompted some viewers to claim that the image was a “glitch in the Matrix.”
However, the inconsistencies that viewers are seeing can be attributed to the iPhone’s camera.

Specifically, the panoramic feature, which lets you capture 180 or 360 degrees of images.
However, confusion arose when the subject of the photo, Tessa Coates, said that it was not a panoramic image.
“I went wedding dress shopping, and the fabric of reality crumbled. This is a real photo, not photoshopped, not a pano, not a Live Photo,” she said on social media.
“If you can’t see the problem, please keep looking, and then you won’t be able to unsee it.”

But because someone else took the picture, experts say they might have accidentally swiped right and taken the image in Pano mode, per BGR.com.
YouTuber and TikToker Faruk Korkmaz was able to explain the iPhone camera occurrence on social media.
Korkmaz explained the image’s metadata revealed some interesting facts.
For example, the resolution of the image was consistent with an iPhone 12’s pano mode.
“The phone was panorama mode and it stitched all [movements] together,” Korkmaz said in a TikTok.
He also noted that the photo doesn’t say panorama mode in the metadata.
However, this is normal when the photo is not wide enough.
