--Ronin's Comments--
 
This is exactly why I wonder about the other photos and chocolate frog
cards. Something must be added that is of the original. Whatever it is must
be safely removable from the living as well. I wonder if these images are
sort of like a 3D video with a bit of artificial intelligence. Kind of like
a video game character based on the original. Or, at least, the magical
equivalent of that sort of thing.
 
Cheers,
Ronin
