A much more relevant link would show accidental double-exposures, especially with evil demonic dog faces.
Oh yes, there must be loads of those. Hang on, I can't seem to find one for some reason.

No, amplifying colors absolutely does NOT change the image, only the colors of the image.
Changing the colours of the image does, in fact, change the image. It goes from the original, to the edit, changed image. That means, not the original.
And we don't even know if sharpness / contrast was manipulated, but like I said a few times already: If the sharpness / contrast WAS manipulated, it was minimal, as you can still see the guy's face as a recognizably blurry film photo.
If sharpness/contrast was changed, that would make more changes to the original which would make it no longer the original.
Changing colors does not change the forms seen in a photo.
Increasing sharpness or contrast might do that, but we can see that if that was done at all, it was very minimal, and certainly not distorting the photo beyond its original appearance as a blurry film photo.

Especially if the freaky optical illusion was caused intentionally by a non-physical entity.
Or by someone manipulating the image to make something look like a dog.
The dog face shows the same blurriness and consistency with the rest of the photo.
AFTER manipulating the image to get the dogs face to stand out.
The only obvious manipulation was increasing the colors, which doesn't change the imagery itself, besides color.
And this tangent is irrelevant anyway. We have the non-color-enhanced version too, and the dog face is still quite visible WITHOUT increasing colors:

Actually, it did.
It went from not a dog, to a kinda dog after whatever changes to the original were done.

No, I am not an expert in demonology but then I am not the one babbling on about them.

Nope. The dog face is perfectly visible without the colors being manipulated.

Of course it does. It changes it from one thing to another. In this case, a woman holding flowers to a kind of odd dog.
Increasing sharpness or contrast might do that, but we can see that if that was done at all, it was very minimal, and certainly not distorting the photo beyond its original appearance as a blurry film photo.
So might changing colours. As seen by your odd dog, that wasn't in the original image.

So it doesn't change the image, but it changes the colour in the image, which would change the image? That's funny!

Zoomed in, which, in itself, changes the image.
Colors can be changed while the images remain otherwise unchanged.
And the dog face is visible in the version that doesn't have colors changed.

My link was relevant because it explains how double exposure can occur accidentally and why. That's quite enough hand waving, thank you.
Oh, you expect me to find a link like this?
"A much more relevant link would show accidental double-exposures, especially with evil demonic dog faces."
A bit tricky, I'm afraid. Can't seem to find one, for some reason.
Colors can obviously change without changing the forms seen in an image.
