When you project an image onto a screen, if it is real you can see the image on the screen, if it is virtual then you cant.

How to tell if an image is real or virtual is easy. A virtual image is outside object.
virtual image ( not on screen, brain interpreting)
No.
A real image can be captured on a screen (eg white paper) whereas a virtual image cannot.To see an image on a screen light rays must come to a focus on the screen, but with a virtual image no actual light rays come together at the location of the image .. hence a virtual image cannot be seen on a screen.A real image is a source of light energy .. rays of light radiate from it.A virtual image is not a source of light energy.. rays of light do not radiate from it ( although it's where the brain 'thinks' the light originated.)
Definitely possible to photograph it. But you cannot catch the image on a screen but virtual image can be seen by eyes. So photograph too is possible.

If an image can be formed on screen it is classified as real. Virtual images cannot be projected on an image.
Real images can be obtained on the screen,whereas virtual images can't be obtained on the screen

Virtual
a virtual and erect image is always formed by a covering lence
you are contradicting yourself here. a virtual image is VIRTUAL. meaning it technically doesn't exist, (though you can manipulate the light to see it) its focus exists beyond the plane of view and therefore you can't see it. to better explain this, pictures do a whole lot more, search for concave and convex lenses and compare the refraction of an image that you get
