I just want clarification on the purpose of this thread? I hope that isn't too much to ask.
The OP specifically said the PURPOSE of this entire thread was to ask others if they saw a UFO in his alterations of the image. When some say they don't, and there is nothing there, he seems to get offended and then posts more pictures, and goes on the defensive.
I just think you need to make it clear what the purpose of this thread is.
If you are just sharing these photos because you think it is interesting what YOU see in them, after editing them, that's cool. However, you shouldn't go on the defensive when A) people explain to you they don't see it, and B) people try and explain to you why editing the photos in the way you are doing isn't going to produce higher visibility of objects previously invisible.
Personally, I don't agree with your analysis of the photos you edited, and furthermore I think your OP was HIGHLY misleading. You claim this is PROOF, beyond a reasonable DOUBT, of alien presence/craftsmanship of the object in question in the photo.
You HAD to know that making such a claim would subject you and your "photo" to heavy scrutiny.
The photo is definitely interesting, and I'll even go as far as to say your editing, and analysis of the photo is interesting too! I'm just not sure what more you want. 1) it isn't proof of ANYTHING, and 2) it is just as likely , as others pointed out, that the "saucer" you are seeing is due to the editing of the photo + you wanting to see something there .
Just keep an open mind! Remember, you are asking others to keep an open mind regarding the photo, so try to keep an open mind yourself, and be mindful of the possibility that nothing is there.
Hi, I may have proof that the foo fighters where Alien Aircraft. (was what I said word for word.)
"You claim this is PROOF, beyond a reasonable DOUBT" (Can you highlight where I said these words? Because this seems like another attempt at trolls/bot to get ppl to look the other way) (And excuse me if I try to get the ego maniacs and know it all off my back..) What is one thing that brings us all here, whats the one questions we cant answer - are they real? And I believe very few people on this planet know the true answer to that question and none of them are here on this site. You come on here throwing more negativity and disinformation and putting words in ppls mouths and you dont want me to get defensive or offended..
Im offering more evidence with every picture that this is real, and you offer nothing to either prove or disprove.. just words of advice.. thanks, I'll go ahead and trade you in for a couple of fortune cookies.
I'm only interested in progress, so I wont reply to you again or argue on this post. This and everything you said isnt progress.. just your two cents.. gee thanks.
If you have evidence to contribute (good or bad) please do, otherwise take your little forum words of wisdom and get out.edit on 04/24/2011 by Odin2305 because: revised

That means the colors were added by the processing.
When a silver halide crystal is exposed to light, a sensitivity speck on the surface of the crystal is turned into a small speck of metallic silver (these comprise the invisible or latent image). If the speck of silver contains approximately four or more atoms, it is rendered developable - meaning that it can undergo development which turns the entire crystal into metallic silver. Areas of the emulsion receiving larger amounts of light (reflected from a subject being photographed, for example) undergo the greatest development and therefore results in the highest optical density. >wiki

I wonder how the brilliant FooFighter (that radiates unknown light spectrum frequencies, energies and radiations) might effect the Silver halide or other compounds that make up the film.....
(another random statement - with no point.)

Photos of the Sun have been taken for years, even in Black and White. I think it covers the light spectrum pretty well...

who's to say that my color filters aren't seeing through the light of the FooFighter in a similar way...

Everyone,
You DO realize he is asking that we analyze a screenshot he took from a video on Youtube, correct?
Not the original photo.
A screenshot....from a video on Youtube.
I think analyzing the image has been thrown right out the window.

Hi Odin2305,
What you say in the above quote would be correct if the picture would actually speak for itself, but I'm afraid it doesn't. I'd have two remarks in this context:
1. Foofighters:
The idea to look through old WW2 photos is great, perhaps there's something on them that nobody ever discovered. Or there may even be aspects these objects have in common, important aspects that went unnoticed in the plethora of images ... further investigations in that direction are absolutely justified, IMHO!
2. Methodolgy:
You have to be careful with image-enhancing. What you did is basically 'destroying' the image. Anything that's of interest is visible in the original, sometimes just faintly, but visible. What you are presenting, is an accumulation of artifacts, which resulted from applying multiple filters and FX excessively.
I did a reconstruction of your result using PhotoFiltre 7 (freeware) in order to illustrate at which stages you actually add new information to the image that were not there in the original. Below you see the result of six modifications that I applied to the original image:
And these are the filters and parameters (incl. settings) that needed to be changed to get more or less what you presented:
And, finally, here goes a comparison between your image and the reconstructed version based on the settings above. The result features almost all the rectangular artifacts you referred to in various posts:
Summary:
The problem with this way of enhancing the original image is that you actually produce new image information throughout the sequence of modifications. The most dramatic distortion occurs when applying excessive parameters to contrast/brightness. You are changing the relation of colors to eachother (and color ranges) resulting in spots that form new surfaces. These gradually transform into rectangular shapes, which are again drastically emphasized when sharpening the image.
This means, your modifications don't show anything that was hidden in the image, it just shows the distortion effects of excessive image enhancing.
The original image only shows a ball of light, with a slightly darker silhouette inside and nothing more. It's perhaps something we can guess at, but far from being evidence for anything. Sorry, but I just had to post this for the sake of staying objective ... nevertheless: keep looking, there's a plethora of other foofighter pics out there!
P.S.: And please don't shoot the messenger ... !
very,very bored. But I DO see Bart! I think this the new ink blot test. Just call it the over processed light blob test.
