Letter: Letters: Unblurred vision

Published 29 May 1993

From PETER DEAN

In the article ‘Tiny brother is watching you’ (8 May) you show examples of
computer enhancement of deliberately blurred photographs.

I can get a much better simulation of the original by looking at the blurred
version through half-closed quivering eyelashes.

Why is this?
