They are clear and all, and I AM looking at them in my phone so it's not like I get the same view as a monitor. To me, it looks like the lense is a magnified lense somehow. The pinion and carb look close and clear, the engine is still clear but looks far away... Then a clear pic of your thumb and clutch shoes but the rest is blurred in the back... Kinda funky. You're a modern artist!!!
