Weird, Creepy, Hilarious — Quite Possibly the Most Random Album Ever Created

We’ll be straight with you here: there is zero connection between any of the images you’re about to see. Well, except for the fact that they’re all 100% bizarre.

Apparently the iPhone camera can “see” various types of rays, such as ultraviolet and infrared, by its semiconductor sensor. With this app, it can detect high amounts of radiation in 30 seconds, while taking 1+ hours for lower amounts. In those cases, they say you might want to plug in the recharger because you’ll need to leave the device still for a long time.
