Why is HD or 3D so impressive on a flat screen, but we walk around in real life with the highest definition possible and the most realistic 3D and it's completely mundane? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

The most impressive screens have super-saturated color and images that are shot by professional filmographers/photographers. It's hard to compose a scene in real life but professionals do it every day and the TV is how many of them showcase their work. If you look hard enough and try hard enough then you too will find some really amazing and beautiful images with your eyes. -Polarizers help, too.

This. My phone camera takes ultra high resolution pictures then algorithmically processes them. They look more beautiful and real than reality.
