The images of a camera obscura are typically projected in an inverted and reversed manner due to the position of the lenses. As light slips through a small hole, the image is then projected inside a dark chamber. Images produced by the camera obscura are manually painted by the artist. On the other hand, images created in photography are captured just the way the real scenery is oriented. Images captured by the present camera are vivid with a correct proportion.
