Origin[]

Alfred Stieglitz (January 1, 1864 – July 13, 1946) was an American photographer and modern art promoter who was instrumental over his fifty-year career in making photography an accepted art form. In addition to his photography, Stieglitz is known for the New York art galleries that he ran in the early part of the 20th century, where he introduced many avant-garde European artists to the U.S. He was married to painter Georgia O'Keeffe.

Effects[]

When any type of camera takes a picture on the tripod, the moment freezes in time around a small localized area. The user can move throughout the frozen area, but cannot move objects under the effect. Time will continue from where it stopped after the picture is taken.
