ITC
Faces in Reflected Light Visual ITC can be encountered in many different
ways. The common denominator is the availability of chaotic light somewhere in
the field of view of a camera. For instance, the video feedback loop is used as
a chaotic light generator. As you will see below, light reflected from many
different surfaces is also chaotic, and when closely examined in photographs,
may support phenomenal images.

Please not that the examples shown
here have been enhanced to make them more evident. In most instances,
this form of ITC produces less well developed features than does the
video feedback technique.
If you are tempted to discount the
examples on this page as tricks of photograph editing software, we
suggest that you try to collect a few examples for yourself. We would
not dream of showing any enhanced examples if it were not for our
confidence that you can easily prove the validity of what we are saying. |

butler2004_bottle_drawing.jpg) This
example was collected by Arthur Soesman using what is sometimes referred
to as the Arthur Soesman method. It is
illustrated in the accompanying picture (right). In this technique, the
bottle is partially filled with liquid and then agitated while a
picture is taken of the surface of the water.
In the picture at the left, you can see
the face of a man inside of the red square. |

jones_tv_screen.jpg) The picture at the right was taken by James Jones. It is of
a turned off television screen that has light from the room reflected from
its surface. Turned off television screens provide excellent texture for
visual ITC.
The small white arrow in the picture is pointing to a brighter area,
which has been cropped and enlarged as you see in the two versions of
the cropped area at the left.
As with the other examples, the picture at the left has obviously been
greatly enhanced to emphasize the phenomenal feature. This enhancement
consisted of selectively blurring the background, as you can see by
comparing the two pictures at the left, and changing the intensity and
contrast. None of the facial features were changed, other than through the
above technique. |
