A bride-to-be has caused a great deal of confusion online after a photo of her wedding dress has been described as a "glitch in the Matrix". Writer and comedian Tessa Coates recently shared a mind-boggling photo on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wheatpraylove/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Instagram</a> that left fans scratching their heads, and honestly, I couldn't figure it out either. While trying on a wedding dress, Tessa found herself standing in front of two mirrors, and the result was nothing short of astonishing. In the photo, her hands appeared in three different positions simultaneously between the mirrors and where she stood, creating a bizarre optical illusion.

This is a real photo, not photoshopped, not a panorama, not a Live Photo," Tessa captioned the mind-bending image, adding: "If you can't see the problem, please keep looking, and then you won't be able to unsee it." Describing the experience as a "glitch in the Matrix," Tessa admitted that it nearly made her feel physically ill. The image left many social media users perplexed and divided between congratulating her on her engagement and advising her to flee. "How...is this possible? Also, congrats!! Delighted for you. And now concerned because those guys in suits will come for you," one person wrote. A second added: "This whole sequence of events is both absolutely terrifying and hilarious," while a third said: "Only you can find the most epic way to announce your engagement - mystery and excitement  - congratulations!" [[jwplayerwidget||https://cdn.jwplayer.com/videos/D6qnPPs5-YXhMkIor.mp4||D6qnPPs5]] Tessa then revealed all on her Instagram stories... The comedian explained that she had visited the bridal shop alone and shared some photos with her sister, who pointed out the uncanny discrepancy between the three versions of Tessa. The eerie picture left Tessa stunned, and she even fell to her hands and knees in shock. Curious about the strange phenomenon, Tessa consulted with an Apple employee at her local Apple Store, named Roger. After a two-hour wait, Roger revealed that the mysterious effect was a result of the phone's camera capturing a burst of images from left to right. "At the exact moment the camera went behind her back, Tessa must have raised her hands, creating a completely different set of images on the other side," Roger explained. He further clarified that the phone made an AI-driven decision to stitch these two sets of images together. Tessa shared a photo on her Instagram Stories, circling the line where the two photos joined. She also mentioned that Google Pixel had introduced a similar technology that takes multiple photos and chooses the best one for the user, adding that iPhones were beta testing this technology. In conclusion, Tessa revealed that Apple employee Roger described the end result as a "one in a million chance." I'm glad we got the answer because the picture was bothering me. <h6>Featured image credit: South_agency/Getty</h6>
