Q: Screen dims when I put a stickie over the front-facing camera on my iMac

When I put a paper over the camera on my iMac (to ensure privacy) it dims the screen brightness. How do I correct this?

 

I'm running Yosemite 10.10.5

I want to cover the front-facing camera on my iMac to ensure privacy at all times.

I put a sticky note pad on it and then my screen completely dims.

How do I fix this?

Thanks!
