YOUR WITNESS SHOWS YOU A PICTURE OF<br />
A “<strong>UFO</strong>”<br />
Did you know that from the beginning <strong>of</strong> the first ever sighting <strong>of</strong> a<br />
“<strong>UFO</strong>”, people around the world have been trying to fraudulently<br />
reproduce a photograph <strong>of</strong> a “<strong>UFO</strong>”? Thanks to recent technological<br />
breakthroughs most <strong>of</strong> these photographs are exposed for what they<br />
are “Fake”, and still today we find people out there continuing this<br />
venture for many different reasons. The main reason a person would<br />
take up this as a hobby usually revolves around “Self Importance” or<br />
“Notoriety” and Fortune and Glory. It becomes evident over time<br />
there may be physiological or sociological problems with the<br />
individual; however, they usually take things to the extreme for<br />
“Notoriety” and if they think they have achieved their goal, they will<br />
continue to attempt to deceive “you” the researcher.<br />
NOTE: WHEN WE RECIEVE A REPORT, THE VAST MAJORITY OF<br />
THE TIME THE PHOTO HAS BEEN REVIEWED FOR ITS<br />
CONTENT OR AUTHENTISITY. WE HAVE AT OUR DISPOSAL<br />
PROGRAMS SUCH AS PHOTO EXPLOSION DELUXE, ADOBE<br />

DURING YOUR RESERACH AND YOU NEED ASSISTANCE TO<br />
SCRUTINIZE IT’S AUTHENTICITY, DO NOT HESITATE TO EMAIL<br />
US.<br />
Most <strong>UFO</strong> pictures that are seen around the web are fraudulent.<br />
Today we live in a world where people who are empowered by the<br />
personal computer can easily create fake <strong>UFO</strong> photographs at will.<br />
Many <strong>UFO</strong> pictures are faked simply by knowing one’s way around a<br />
graphic art program, and the more skilled a graphic artist is, the<br />
harder it is to determine if the <strong>UFO</strong> picture is authentic or fake.<br />
With a little time on one’s hands and some patience, a person can<br />
create a compelling argument for the existence <strong>of</strong> <strong>UFO</strong>s in less than<br />
one hour.<br />

The <strong>UFO</strong> craze created a myriad <strong>of</strong> hubcap throwers, who looked to<br />
capture just the right aerial image to show their friends. Some <strong>UFO</strong><br />
picture creators even tossed trash can lid’s, cereal bowls, and hats<br />
and their own <strong>UFO</strong> models against scenery that would make it<br />
difficult to judge the object’s size. The sky afforded the best <strong>UFO</strong><br />
picture background, as no object for size or comparison would be<br />
photographed.<br />
Some <strong>UFO</strong> pictures were faked by painting an image (or pasting an<br />
image) onto a photograph <strong>of</strong> scenery and then re-photographing<br />
close-up the entire compilation again. The effect seemed to blend<br />
the image <strong>of</strong> the <strong>UFO</strong> into the picture nicely.<br />
In the modern age, <strong>UFO</strong>s can be created easily as simple light<br />
anomalies within digital photos, or even crafted into glorious ships by<br />
the same photo editing or art program. If one wants to fake a <strong>UFO</strong><br />
picture that is even more convincing, then building a realistic looking<br />
<strong>UFO</strong> model and photographing it against a green screen background<br />
works best. The <strong>UFO</strong> model can easily be cropped out <strong>of</strong> the photo<br />
and pasted onto a photo <strong>of</strong> scenery quite easily, all through a<br />
computer program.<br />
Fake <strong>UFO</strong> photos can be easy to detect as most creators forget to<br />
account for the direction <strong>of</strong> sunlight in the background photo, in<br />
comparison to the shadows cast upon the fake <strong>UFO</strong> itself. Also look<br />
for fake <strong>UFO</strong> pictures that appear “constructed” and not a naturally<br />
created photograph. Misaligned pixels are another hint. Just imagine<br />
the shocked, amateur photographer trying to photograph an elusive<br />
<strong>UFO</strong> that is moving and possibly not trying to be seen. That would<br />
lend one to think that the <strong>UFO</strong> should commonly be blurred to some<br />
degree.<br />
In this digital age we live in it is well to remember, as the s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />
programs become more sophisticated and user friendly, more people<br />
will attempt to fool the researcher. You should also remember what is<br />
good for the goose is also good for the gander. Those same s<strong>of</strong>tware<br />
photo programs can also be used to detect a fraudulently contrived<br />
<strong>UFO</strong> photograph that is meant to fool you.<br />

<strong>PA</strong>RANORMAL TIPS<br />
Always plan you investigation in advance and research the<br />
background <strong>of</strong> the site you wish to investigate before hand.<br />
Keep a log <strong>of</strong> equipment used at the site, as it will also come<br />
in handy to make sure you didn’t overlooked a piece <strong>of</strong><br />
equipment and left the site without it.<br />
Remove batteries from equipment you don’t use <strong>of</strong>ten as an<br />
old and leaking battery can destroy a valuable piece <strong>of</strong><br />
equipment. Test and replace bad batteries monthly. Note:<br />
Re-chargeable batteries are not the best for longevity in the<br />
field.<br />

NOTABLE <strong>UFO</strong> QUOTES<br />
"The evidence is overwhelming that Planet Earth is being<br />
visited by intelligently controlled extraterrestrial spacecraft. In<br />
other words, some <strong>UFO</strong>s are alien spacecraft. Most are not.<br />
It's clear from the opinion polls and my own experience, that<br />
indeed most people accept the notion that some <strong>UFO</strong>s are<br />
alien spacecraft. The greater the education, the more likely<br />
to accept this proposition"<br />
-- Stanton Friedman Defense Contractor Nuclear Physicist<br />
"The <strong>UFO</strong> phenomenon being reported is something real<br />
and not visionary or fictitious"<br />
--General Nathan Twining Chairman, Joint Chiefs <strong>of</strong> Staff,<br />
1955-1958<br />
"When the long awaited solution to the <strong>UFO</strong> problem comes,<br />
I believe that it will prove to be not merely the next small step<br />
in the march <strong>of</strong> science, but a mighty and totally unexpected<br />
quantum leap." "We had a job to do, whether right or wrong,<br />
to keep the public from getting excited"<br />
--Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Director US Air Force Project Blue Book<br />
as a Scientific Consultant, Astronomer, Investigator.<br />

On June 24, 1947, while flying near Mt. Rainer, Arnold claimed to have seen nine<br />
unusual objects in the skies.He also claimed to have seen <strong>UFO</strong>s on several other<br />
occasions afterwards, as well.<br />
Arnold originally described the objects' shape as "flat like a pie pan", "shaped like<br />
a pie plate", "half-moon shaped, oval in front and convex in the rear", "something<br />
like a pie plate that was cut in half with a sort <strong>of</strong> a convex triangle in the rear", or<br />
simply "saucer-like" or "like a big flat disk", and also described their erratic motion<br />
being "like a fish flipping in the sun" or a saucer skipped across water. From<br />
these, the press quickly coined the new terms "flying saucer” and "flying disc" to<br />
describe such objects, many <strong>of</strong> which were reported within days after Arnold's<br />
sighting.<br />
Later Arnold would add that one <strong>of</strong> the objects actually resembled a crescent or<br />
flying wing (see image above).The U.S. Air Force formally listed the Arnold case<br />
as a mirage; this is one <strong>of</strong> many explanations that have been disputed by critics,<br />
and researchers. There has never been an entirely persuasive conventional<br />
explanation <strong>of</strong> the Arnold sighting.<br />

HAS THE OBJECT IN THE BALTIC SEA<br />
BEEN IDENTIFIED?<br />
May actually be top-secret Nazi anti-submarine trap lost since WWII<br />
(London Daily Mail) Divers exploring a ‘<strong>UFO</strong>-shaped’ object<br />
in the Baltic Sea say that the strange, curved object might be<br />

a Nazi device lost beneath the waves since the end <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Second World War.<br />
Sonar scans have shown that the device, raised 10ft above<br />
the seabed and measuring 200ft by 25ft, could be the base<br />
<strong>of</strong> an anti-submarine weapon.<br />
The weapon was built with wire mesh, which could have<br />
baffled submarine radar, leading enemy craft to crash –<br />
much in the same way as turning out a lighthouse beacon<br />
could be used as a weapon against shipping.<br />
But now former Swedish naval <strong>of</strong>ficer and WWII expert<br />
Anders Autellus has revealed that the structure could be the<br />
base <strong>of</strong> a device designed to block British and Russian<br />
submarines.<br />

IN THE NEWS<br />
The truth is north <strong>of</strong> the border. <strong>UFO</strong> sightings in<br />
Canada reach a record high <strong>of</strong> THREE per day.<br />
A bloated, pig-like carcass spotted beneath the<br />
Brooklyn Bridge over the weekend has spooked<br />
New Yorkers buzzing about mutant river<br />
“monsters.”<br />
The British government recently released data<br />
relating to the United Kingdom’s response to the<br />
possible existence <strong>of</strong> <strong>UFO</strong>s. The 25 files and 6,700<br />
pages <strong>of</strong> data document <strong>UFO</strong> policy, issues with<br />
media outreach, public correspondence, and, <strong>of</strong><br />
course, reports <strong>of</strong> <strong>UFO</strong> sightings from the public.<br />
The FAA Reauthorization Act, orders the Federal<br />
Aviation Administration to develop regulations for<br />
the testing and licensing <strong>of</strong> commercial drones by<br />
2015... the FAA projects that 30,000 drones could<br />
be in the nation’s skies, by the year 2020.<br />
