1. A method for presenting an image of a scene, comprising:
capturing an image of a scene by a camera of an electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises the camera and a display, and wherein the camera and the display have a first spatial relationship;
determining a second spatial relationship between a viewpoint and the display of the electronic device;
warping the image to obtain an image of a first portion of the scene based on the first spatial relationship and the second spatial relationship so that the first portion of the scene appears at a same scale as a second portion of the scene visible outside an edge of the electronic device; and
presenting the warped image on the display.
