Very interesting pic. anyone have any guess?

just saw this posted on the mufon website looks pretty real. No other information give what do you think this is?www.mufoncms.com...

Looks fake to me.

I think its because the "craft" is more in focus than the houses. But I'm not an expert just voicing my opinion.

Its appearance is the one of the classic flying saucer, "Bob Lazar like",
like this one:



And also the angle of illumination is the same, but that could be a coincidence

Thanks, with all the fake pics, CGI etc, hard to tell.. and I would guess, intentionally done to throw off the real ones. What does anyone else think?

I think Internos hit the nail on the head with this one. Good job, IMO it is a Photoshop from the exact same image he referenced.

When i see UFOs with that shape, that's one of the first images that i compare:
since it has an uniform background, it's easier to cut and paste:
Here i've reduced the contrast, and the match is better than before:

Could be right I just don't know anymore. I am starting to think this is all done to miss-lead us. Fill us with fake so we pass by the real ones. They, who ever they are, are doing a great job of it. Anyone else feel this way?

In the specific case of Mufon, i have a bad feeling:
if you look at the cases, there's a big amount of meaningless reports:
now, this after some time, will bring us to have wrong statistics, and less point of reference: and the Mufon won't longer be taken seriously because 90% of cases reported are fakes, misinterpretations and so on.
With that being said, how will we look at a map like this one and take it seriously?
The Mufon could be a great source of informations, but after being injected with fakes, pranks, misinterpretation and so on, will lose its reliability.
In the other hand, what else could they do? It's sad, this is my take.

I total agree with you. What else is there? People need a place to report these strange things that they can't explain. I myself have seen several strange lights that are not explainable, and I am sure others have too. What might be strange to one person, could be deemed fake by others. My point is, we are being subject to many many sightings. Explained or not, fake or not, just so many. This could be a dis-info ploy to throw us all off the real ones.

It does look very much like a photoshop of the image Internos has brought to the table.

And to add to the following:

The foreground is the focus point of the picture and as you look in to the depth the focus seems to degrade, so because the object is quite clear it should be quite close to the camera meaning it would be about the size of a bird..............hmmmmmmmmm a bird?

Nah, I going with Internos nice work mate!!

Thanks for the find though starwatcher1.

Kind regards and keep looking up S_G

Here is a link to the OP report. Says he is from Ireland. mufoncms.com...

Well, with a Focal of f/4.0 , and in this bad weather .. The camera must have been on a tripod, and the ufo must have been dead on the spot for over 1 second.

Let alone the image is taken 21:24 in the evening, and probably north england islands.. I guess its pretty dark there for å short shutter image.

Edit: and by the looks of it, its a poor attemt of a HDR image. the bottom of the image has a different dynamic range than the upper part.



Edit 2: And off course, the ufo is remarkably sharper in focus than the buildings. According to the 40mm lens, that is not possible.

Thanks for that information, could you tell me what you mean by "HDR" image? no expert here. Thanks

that is the fakest pic i have ever seen. you can see where it was photoshoped in. the ship is clear than the pic. and the ship is jpg and the pic bmp but all resaved in another format. i hate photoshop

First excellent work Internos as usual, it could very well be a photoshop haox job. However it could also be:



[/ats]

The above is a bird that was mistakenly (and honestly) reported as a UFO. So while the OP ufo pic sure looks lots like Internos' explanation and a hoax, it could also be an honest reporting and possibly a mistaken identity.

ok to clearify. you have to find out. 1) where was the picture take 2) is it near ocean, lake, river? 3) has anyone else seen anything in the area 4) can you duno the pic with reversal features.

that is a great start.

Well of course i can't remember all the UFO photos i've seen in my life
But with THIS specific shape an with a metallic surface, the ones that i've noticed are being used most frequently (not only for hoaxes, but even for reconstructions) are, more or less, these ones:




but, needless to say, this helps only in cases of poor attempts of hoaxes, the "copy & paste" ones.
