Color bleeding looks like a bug!

This red effect is color bleeding in my living room this morning, and it is about what it really looks like (no photoshop or camera curve amplification).  I looked through the window in the image and no red out there!


The source for the image was obvious once I shadowed it.  It is all a red car across the screet that has caught the sun before most of the other objects.  It is mostly burned out here which is because it is bright.  I should have HDR'd it!  Next time.   On the right a figure blocking that car (I am standing by the wall where the red pattern appears, taking this picture) completely eliminated the effect.  Now THAT is a secondary light source like we idealize in discussions...


Also for those that enjoy these, Morgan McGuire collects images that look like bugs.  My favorite is the obvious shadow aliasing.

Nice bug. Often when I go to the ocean and stare out at it, I think it looks fake. Thank you computer graphics...
