UFO spotted (pic)

I see a bald wombat, and I really didn't want to :confused:

Now see here Wyvern, it was a comment like this that started the dreadful Combat Wombat War of '03. It divided this forum and even to this day there is bitterness between factions. I'm sorry to say that Renata can't get past it and is still trying to get her devotees to shave wombats as some sort of initiation ceremony.
It is time to move on! ManfredvonRichthoffen is also stuck in the past - just look at the aircraft he flies!

And anyway, someone who hides behind the avatar of a cat when they look like the picture below has to be suspect....................
 
If you compare the profile at the two arrows i have placed you will see they are identical. It is painfully obvious that he has photographed the reflection of the sun behind him while taking a picture of the mountain the sun shines at.
 
Ove: Not that I doubt that your theory is right, but could you explain? What profiles?

It is obviously not a laser pointer, since laser pointers are red. Even if a film overload had occured making the main spot white, the scattered light at the edges would be red.

The question remains, what is doing the reflecting?
 
The shape of the shadow. The UFO is a mirror image (in a car window) of the sun peeking above a mountain and that mountain has the same shape as the shadow on the mountainside.
 
Ove, you're a genious. (:

It looks to me like someone shot a roman candle sideways, or at a shallow angle, from out of the picture.

For that matter, you could get a similiar effect by carefully cracking the glass of a light bulb and turning it on, and photographing the burning filament.

We don't know the distance to the object, or the size of the object. Therefore, it is impossible to say anything about either. That they try to estimate its height (50 m high) is not evidence of anything.

However, if we venture a guess, the bright object would be somewhere out hovering over the water. Where is the reflection of the object in the water? There is none.

An object as bright as this does not illuminate the banks of the fjord?

Look at the reddish area just around the bright light. It is far more pixellated than the surrounding area. A laser pointer pointing directly at a glass car front window would diffract exactly like that (try it yourself, BUT WEAR VERY DARK SUNGLASSES!!).

There are also some very odd aspects of this. They "forget" that they took a picture? They "forget" that the film roll was in the drawer for two years? We don't hear from the other witnesses?

Big. Red. Flags.

It looks like it could be something as simple as a drop of developer left on for a length of time.

As for the sunglasses... most laser pointers are class III lasers, so you can probably safely look at them for SOME length of time.

There was a study of shining laser pointers at people whose eyes were to be removed for cancer anyhow, and no permanent damage resulted after up to like 15 minutes.

As for not illuminating the banks - obviously their cloaking device fell only slightly out of tune, and began blocking only indirect light. I'm sure some alien got a bad performance review for the maintence. :)
 
It looks like a sunset to me, the light itself I mean. Can't it be a reflection in the air, like a fatamorgana/mirage kind of event? I believe it has something to do with varying density of the air, that creates the reflection. Perhabs the real sunset is happening behind the hill to the right and is being reflected over the lake.
 
Why on earth are you all debating a stupid photo that could be of ANYTHING ???

I'm quite interested in UFOs, Roswell, and stuff like that.
But even I wouldn't give a second's credibility to a photo like THAT.

It doesn't even do us the courtesy of looking like a frisby-ed hubcap !

If they saw this over the lake as the witnesses claim, I think it's an interesting phenonemon, and personally I find it more interesting to try to figure out what caused it, than the average ufo picture out there.

But if you have a more interesting picture you would like to discuss with people, then feel free to start a thread about it.

If they saw this over the lake it would be contributed to that age old norwegian tradition: "HJEMMEBRÆNDT" (home brewed alcohol). As somebody once said: "If all the yeast sold in Norway was used to bake bread you could end world hunger here and now". ;)

No my theory is that they saw the picture and said "Hey that could look like an UFO picture let's see if we can make some money on it". So far they've succeded. ;)
 
Too bad Latin and Carlos aren't here. They could've made this thread really interesting. That's OK, though, I'll take their place:

"it is camera flash reflection" , that is just your assumption , as others members assumptions: missile, bug , blur of the camera ,lens dirty, etc, etc.
You all are wrong.
I understand that is difficult for some JREF members, administrators and moderators to admit their own faults. They "think" they are always right. They "think" they are intelligents and specials . They will never realize that are just humans in this little world.
You think I am stupid, but I have proof.
