Interesting Image in real estate photo (Experts Needed !!)

I came across this as I was working on some photos. Before anyone ask's I do not know the location of the photo or the person who took it. All I know is there is an interesting "something" in the clouds at the top of the photo. It seems very much out of place. Is it a plane, bird, or UFO? I don't know its to far away to see anything other then a circular shape.

Check jeramiahs post for the pics

It could be nothing but I found it interesting none the less.

Can't see the images, any links to the photos?

yeah the pics aren't showing up for me, either.

Please fix the links. Can't see the images, which are rather important to the tread

Ok this is really starting to piss me off. I can see the images just fine. What other websites can host photos?

You'll have to click on the link for the time being.

Pretty reliable for me, and others here..

Still can't see the images, even when clicking on the links...

You get nothing when you click on the links? The orginals were done by imageshack

Whompa-

I got your back brother. Here are the two picture files, which I hope everybody can now see. I think the large one was too big or some such nonsense. So, I resized it and included the zoomed in picture of the UFO itself.




A little hard to find the UFO - it's up the top, just left of centre at the apex of the cloud


There you are. Whompa's original photo.


The object at 300%

THANK YOU!! Anyhow everyone there it is. What do you all think?

An extremely simple image enhancement reveals it to be an apparently solid, free-floating object with no visible wires or means of support.





Filters used were Emboss and Find Edges in Photoshop CS.

It doesn't appear to be a bird. Could it be a fault within the camera? Missing pixels or some such? Failing that, perhaps dust on the lens? Anybody with greater experience care to comment?

That I did I took out his background and liquified his face a little. About the photo. I have little in the way of info I can offer other then its a real estate picture taken of a lot for sale. It was shot by the realtor for a gloss production we do each month.

Whatever it is, it seems to be extremely spherical, which would rule out objects such as birds or conventional planes. A balloon seems the best candidate, but the area in the photos seems rather remote for a stray balloon to be making the rounds.

I also note that the bluriness around the object appears to be consistent on each side, perhaps indicating that the object was not in motion when the picture was taken. Again, this suggests balloon and I would label it as such were this photo not taken in what appears to be a fairly remote area.

You are correct. That area is very remote. The mountain you see in the background is a ski resort. It could be a balloon but the only problem with that is judging by the distance the object looks to be from the camera if it was a balloon it would immense. Not your ordinary balloon.

It would be great if somebody with more experience interpreting images would share their thoughts with us. As for me, the skeptic in me is leaning towards either a naturally occurring phenomenon or an artifact of the camera itself. The believer in me is tending towards the possibility of the Zeta Reticuli bobsled team getting in some early practice.

>its a real estate picture taken of a lot for sale.

So...do you figure the UFO make the lot more or less desireable?

What's the parcel number, by the way?

I would assume being that real estate is sky rocketing around here that its already pricey enough minus the UFO. Hey maybe they were looking for property too?

Well... it seems like an average pic of a something or other , but since you don't know who took it or where they took it , it simply has to go in the interesting but unverifiable pile.
