A person, camera, or other image receiving means (3) travels past the images, by walking, riding in a vehicle, etc. As the person travels, each image is consecutively able to be viewed by the person - either, by a louvre or other physical viewing means, or, by being illuminated by a stroboscopic light or the like.
