Awesome, spf33

Definately 5 star. The common res seems to be 1169x765. Is that because Chad picked this res when he scanned them? About the spots on some of the pics. Could those be caused by dirt or dust on the scanner glass? What do you make of those?

This also raises one interesting point, the other set of images was taken with a minolta dimage X and this one with a film camera. I'd like to see high res. scans of the negatives and the original raw files from the other set. If nothing else you could at least make out the writing and other detail better.

One question that I dont think anyone has asked. Two images show bushes with yellow flowers in them, can anyone ID these and tell if they're in season and where they commonly appear?

ok, Lex says the filenames are original.
He does not have any ip address information for chad.

the original filenames, imageshack alters them slightly;

Wow, that's one really freaky-looking UFO. Something tells me it's not fake though, but I guess I'm just too easy to convince.

It looks really cool.

New sighting www.earthfiles.com...

That's not very recent, you can discuss these pictures in more detail here.

I got 9/10 correct on that link...anyways um..this pic looks completely photoshopped I'm really surprised that people are actually considering this as a real photo...maybe its just me

Which would be scarier? A. UFO B. V for Vendetta scenario

How do we know that Aliens from other planets are our size. Maybe the guys flying this ship are like 16 inches tall.

I think it could real but most likely a new drone.

Ok folks I would like to thank rwiggins for providing the amazing model. I put this into a feed from the original youtube footage (www.youtube.com...) and this is what i got. Its still not perfect needs to be worked on a lot, but hey. Still having problems with motion blur etc. Waaala:

Thanks for the model and help

YouTube Link

wait i'm confused about the model...

did somebody build that and then video tape it? or they did it in cgi?
sorry i need to keep up with this thread a little better.

Our kind member rwiggins here at ATS provided us a CG model. I then used that CG model to composite it into another video to make it seem like a real UFO. Im just doing this to show the kind folks here at ATS that, yes there are UFO hoaxers out there, and if I, a person who has never had ANY professional CG training of any sort can do it, what can the pros come up with.

If anybody has some really sharp hires video that is a short clip about 5 sec or so I would like to make a video of this fake photoshopped craft flying in the video. Thanks

THE PROFESSIONAL

Thanks for the vid!!! Brings new meaning to "air guitar"

LOL, your welcome.

The Challenge Results
Excellent! Nine out of ten answers were correct

I was wrong on the car

It's a bit hard to tell from the pictures, but they could be forscythia, common in US and blooms in early spring. However, I'm in the southeast, and it is possible that there are other plants out west that could have a similar appearance.

Something about the photos just doesn't look right. Someone had mentioned that it's too well lit from underneath and sure enough, that's exactly it. In almost every photo the craft looks as though it is being lit from underneath by some kind of photographic reflectors or white surface. I've seen many pictures of real aircraft in flight on a sunny day and in those pictures the underside of the aircraft is very dark in contrast to the rest of it, unlike the craft in these photos.

I took a photo of the strange craft and darkened the underside as to how it should look, with a "before" and "after" picture and to me the craft looks far more realistic and convincing with the darker underside.

See what you guys think:




So it is of my opinion this is a hoax. I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it.
