Lying with Pixels

Na genoeg de ganze mensheid geloofd dat er echte vliegtuigen in de torens zijn gevlogen. Ik zeg dat er matige Winding-"Q"-sjabloon erin zijn gevlogen.

Niets is meer authentiek te noemen. Pixelbewerking is te geavanceerd.

Veel UFO's of USO's hoeven niet buitenaards te zijn.

@ Dragorius: voglens Biekje was er een 6 seconden vertraging en was er een pixelperfecte nose-out van het vliegtuig door de toren heen, terwijl het verpulverd had moeten zijn.

A Huge Thankyou to you Springer for your offer to get my picture analysed!

We can now only wait and see what the expert's have to say!

Again a BIG Thankyou all who have contributed and put in time and effort to help find out what my Snowdonian Disk may be or not be.......

You are all wonderful!

What does the ability to shoot in RAW at only 640×480 do for us? I’d love to be able to shoot RAW photos with my N95, but this is kinda useless, isn’t it?

Wat is er zo speciaal aan deze 2e druppel op de ruit ?
Ik dacht dat het om dat vliegende object ging ?

I've got the analysis back from [/b]Jeff Ritzmann[/b] and I want to thank Jeff for taking the time to do this for us.

Ritzmann analyse:
Posted in this exam write up are 2 screen grabs. The image was dropped into LAB color, and you'll see the enlarged LAB color and an adjusted B channel.

This is without question, a raindrop, shaped much like a lateral oval. It this were a disc structure with a flat bottom as it appears, the B channel would not show anything under the "disc" object. However, we get a bottom edge oval shape. The reason this is visible, and the reason for the illusion is that raindrops depending on the viewing angle and horizon, reverse the image refracted inside the water like a lens. The bottom of the "disc" here is the horizon in reverse. The sky is represented in the bottom of the raindrop. However, because the viewing angle is seeing the drop IN the sky as a background, the sky and reflection are nearly the same color value.

After LAB color mode is employed, we can see the slight difference in the bottom of the drop's reflection of the sky and the regular sky seen behind the drop.

In the 2 examples seen here, the LAB color mode version shows a blowup of the object in question (lab1.jpg). Note that the color values firstly are identical to the environment. Thats your first clue. The blue lateral lines are confining (rather graciously) the image perceived as a disc with a flat bottom.

The other black and white image is an auto-adjusted B channel of the same image without the blue guides removed or moved from the previous full LAB color (lab2_B.jpg). Note that now below the bottom line which contained the "disc" we have a solid light under-arc. This is the bottom of the raindrop which is refracting sky, which varies in color so slightly that in the regular RGB image it's simply invisible which completes the illusion. But LAB color gives us the ability to break down the channels in a different way and examine them. LAB is Lightness with color opponent A and B dimensions based upon CIE XYZ color space (CIELAB). LAB can get you really into subtle areas just not visible in any RGB channel operations.

So, there's your raindrop disc.

I don't believe the shooter had any intention of fooling anyone, it's an honest mistake and had those other drops not been there - we'd only have the threatening clouds to suggest rain. There was no intent of a hoax here, so no witch hunts and berating people. It's just a misidentification. They happen all the time.

I want to emphasize what Jeff says in his report, there is NO REASON to be anything less than civil with "Beauty", she is an Honest Agent and cooperated FULLY with getting this report done.

We won't tolerate rude "I told ya so's" or any form of berating here. This is AboveTopSecret.com after all.
