I was watching a TV show about UFO sightings, and of course , they kept showing blury, out of focuse snapshots as proof. It was then that I thought "hey, I could do that", and this is the result. These photos were not modified after the fact, except to resize.

I did this by reflecting my flashlight off of the window. The wider "disc shaped" object was created by shining the flashlight through two diffusers that came from an LCD monitor I dismanteled for a different project. The photo below shows the problem presented by double-pane windows.
...

With a single pane of glass I could have created much more detailed images. I would like to try this again some time under better conditions. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed looking at the photos as much as I enjoyed creating them. Wink

That's actually a pretty cool pic! It looks like the sky is being torn apart. I've made a bigfoot hoax picture before, lol. Nice pic!

Maybe you should contact UFOs R Us. Those are far better than the usual blurry out of focus photos they usually show as "proof". Wink

I believe that many of these pics are doctored which folk say are true and yours look great. The few that are genuine I think are not aliens, but mysterious wonders or reflections that are natural. If the sun is shining it can reflect and cause all sorts of tricks.

To be honest; how many people who don't believe in aliens "see" one and then become convinced? It is the people that believe in them that are always spotting them! Wink Ahh pyscology and the human mind! Shocked Grin

This is actually quite an interesting prospect, I've not actually  thought of trying a hoax picture before. Time to get the camera!

Wow! You wouldn't believe what just happened! As I went to take a picture, a strange contrail emerged in the upper atmosphere, at extremely high speeds...

...

Then, just a few seconds later, it came down, and hovered a couple of miles outside of my window!

Unfortunately the picture I took blurred itself for some reason, so the image isn't clear, and before I could take another, it shot off...

...

There is no contrail in the above picture because I couldn't be arsed to draw another...I mean, it dissipated.

(note, I did this as a piss take because I can't draw a plausible UFO Tongue)

Oh, and I'll try the light shining on the window when it gets dark!
