Propellers

It seems the iPhone camera scans which makes for interesting photos of things moving fast. Anybody taken any iPhone photos with similar effects?

I heard about the way the iPhone captured photos and messed with it for a while when I first got it. If you wiggle the phone back and forth when it takes the shot you get some creative results.

Here is the only example I have that doesn't show my children's faces:

FYI, this effect (the creation of artifacts inconsistent with the reality of the subject being recorded) is called "aliasing", and it happens any time you are doing sampling of an input, be it video, still imaging, or audio, for example.
