Title: iPhone camera - interesting and unusual shot.

This isn't my shot however I did come across it on the internet and thought it was worth sharing.

The cheap CMOS sensor of an iPhone does not expose the whole thing at once, it scans from left to right. If you take a picture of something that moves very fast (like an airplane prop) you can get some crazy pictures out of it since each column represents a slightly different time.
