Creepy Australian UFO Pic

a reply to: blackmetalmist

Exactly. Which is why, in my opinion we ought to be just as skeptical of the debunking efforts as some are of the initial "UFO". As soon as we're offered ANY alternate explanation, its 100% proven fake. Many declare fake even BEFORE any alternate explanations surface.

Why go through the trouble doctoring a real UFO picture up to make it look fake for? I can see going through the trouble to completely hoax a picture to fool people into thinking its a real UFO....but to fake a genuine UFO photo to make it look.......fake? What gain is there to doing that? As matter of fact, it makes zero sense.

it's easily possible [some would say undeniable, and people better prepared than i could provide examples with little effort] for legit photos of real ufos to be doctored for debunking
which is why you need a credible story, and as many eye witnesses as possible...
unfortunately this one doesn't seem to have a story attached at all? Just a location proven to be false?
that's quite a shame, it would be such a great twist to have so dramatic and horsey a shot prove to be the one that launches true disclosure.

It's pretty impressive how the photographer managed to get the lightening strike and UFO all in the same picture. Good horizontal too.

This reflection interests me...

That reflection that interests you is his iPhone and his fingers.

Just seen the above post, a thread ending post. Nice find. To the person who created this fake, you're a ******.

Maybe it's a portal

More chance of it being an A55hole than a portal

If it is a reflection of a lamp, and again I'm open to that possibility, why doesn't the whole lamp show? Why do the clouds appear to cover parts of the object? If it's a reflection then there wouldn't be any clouds in front of the image, right??

Think about it it's a reflection on glass the clouds are not in front of it, the amount that's reflected depends on a lot of things light level, contrast, angle it hits glass etc.

Sounds like a 'Jed eye' mind trick!

I'm surprised this isnt moved to the HOAX bin yet...

Also my biggest question is why would Facebook try to take the image down?

Why would someone try and claim Facebook tried to take the image down? Where is the evidence that they tried?
