Enough with the dead butterflies
I&#x27;m glad to have this pointed out to me. It&#x27;s so &quot;obvious&quot; now that live butterflies don&#x27;t look that way, I&#x27;ll never not notice this now. It&#x27;s similar to all the tricks video media uses for aesthetics and common familiarity: gun cocking noises, computer hacking images, punch sound effects, and the like. It also remind me of location specific tricks, such as how the pyramids of Giza, Egypt are shown in pictures, or how wildlife photographers sometimes do staged photoshoots.<p>I think it&#x27;s a very good thing to be aware of this. So much of our information is received through indirect means, how many things do we watch on video without understanding how the image and sound has been enhanced? I&#x27;ve been surprised before to see something in person and realize the media representation is not accurate.
