So, the iPhone X is in people’s hands now, and with it, the uber-high-resolution and incredible detail of its very good selfie camera. 

So good, in fact, that some of the people using it are slightly horrified.

The iPhone X comes with Apple’s brand new TrueDepth camera on the front, which shoots selfies using a 7-megapixel camera and employs an infrared camera to capture the nuanced depth features in faces. It’s shockingly better than any other front-facing mobile camera available.

Every year, more than six million people pay Mona Lisa a visit at the Louvre in Paris, and most of them snap a picture or two. 

Using strictly photographs found on Instagram, Daniel McKee created a hilarious film that explores the universal obsession we have with documenting our experiences. But don’t feel too guilty if you’ve faced the Mona Lisa and snapped a photo—clearly you’re not alone. 

The music accompanying the short video is by Isaac Stern.
