Description

This is one example of the ability for tourists to capture events at an airport, even before camera phones.

It’s very suspicious when there are no photos of a UFO at an airport like the O’ Hare sighting on Nov 7, 2006. I happen to marginally believe that was real, but the lack of photos is a huge concern that puts it on the bubble. I think there’s a tendency for people to photograph things they recognize and to hesitate when they don’t. However this is a great reminder that photography happened before iPhones.

Another example is the lack of photographic evidence if the Montreal sighting in 1990. It was supposedly there for hours, there was a newspaper photographer, yet the only photo is garbage. Back in that time any photographer knew to leave the shutter open to get a sharp picture in low light. It doesn’t make sense.
