Easy Photography Life Hack!

·Nov 10, 2024

Okay, I just learned the greatest life hack. If you see something that you want to take a picture of, but you left your phone at home, don't worry. Just do this: blindfold yourself for like 30 minutes, and then stare at what you want to take a picture of for 3 minutes.

Next, pull out one of your eyeballs and cut it in half, top to bottom. Throw the back half into a 14% potassic Alum solution. Within 24 hours, the ropson on your retina will become fixed into a permanent image of the last thing you were looking at. It's called an optogram, and no one's ever done it, at least not to themselves.

The process was invented in the late 1800s. Here's an optogram from the retina of a rabbit that was forced to stare at a window. Now, at the turn of the century, this caused a lot of excitement. Optogram might help us solve crimes, right? We could look at the eyes of victims and see the last thing they saw.

Unfortunately, optograms are of very poor quality. Here's one from the retina of a rabbit that looked at a picture of Salvador Dali. Their poor quality means they have no forensic value. So, keep your eyes in their sockets.
