taken with the

Gaussian filters and averaging techniques are used to enhanced pictures. | |
 |
This image of a hand is shown in two sizes and in negative - the hand shape is clearly visible. | |
  |
The hand image was taken through a 15mm pad of paper - the centre line is the spine of the pad which has created the difference in contrast - due to the difference in paper density. | |
