Tia Posted December 30, 2004 #8 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Does anyone know what it is then? Saying fake alone is enough. At least with a sassy pic we get comments of man in a suit and drawings, but what is this then? My only thought would be a school of fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Rottweiler Posted December 30, 2004 Author #9 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I really don't see how it could be faked.Especially with 2 pics,and both are of the same figure.I don't think it is a school of fish,the only thing that's possible is maybe an oil spill...

Diebytheflyguy Posted December 30, 2004 #17 Share Posted December 30, 2004 (edited) It was a hoax. The picture was taken by French photographer Robert Le Serrec in shallow Austrailian waters in 1964. His pecular story and shady reputation - branded the picture a hoax. 428626[/snapback] Also: 7. The Queensland Monster In December 1964, French photographer Robert Serrec was on vacation in Queensland, Australia, when he took the photograph of a lifetime -- or faked it. He was paddling rowboats with a group of family and friends in shallow waters off Hook Island, near the Queensland coast, when he says a bizarre creature appeared beneath the waves. Serrec described the monster as an enormous, dark-colored snake with the shape of a giant tadpole. It had a huge reptilian head and a slender, waving body that stretched to about 75-80 feet. Serrec said there seemed to be a wounded area on the creature's back. One of Serrec's photos (shown on this page) presents a very clear and striking image that distinguishes it from the average blurred, murky sea monster picture. Serrec also shot some movie camera footage underwater, but it did not turn out with any distinct detail. Serrec's photo and his story have been widely discredited as a hoax. The main argument against the photo is that it is simply too clear -- it looks so perfect and so overly "real" that many experts believe, ironically, that it must have been staged. It is also extremely difficult to judge the scale of the supposed creature. The position of the tiny man in the rowboat above the monster creates the visual impression that the monster must be gigantic, but it could actually be a small prop photographed at very close range, with the rowboat off in the far distance. Source. Oh, and another source saying it was a hoax. Link. Case Closed. Edited December 30, 2004 by Diebytheflyguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Spock Posted December 30, 2004 #20 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Someone made a huge tadpole- like- model; was patient for a sunny day; placed it into the water with some friends help; took the shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scipherel Posted December 30, 2004 #21 Share Posted December 30, 2004 It's funny to me when they do things like this. They submerged the subject underwater but still you could see traces of cropping marks even a sea filter effect was applied to it. When you do hoaxes you should study it too before posting it and make sure you leave no traces of any kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fake, it's already been proven I read about it ages ago. EDIT - But yeah that doesn't mean I don't wish they were real too so I get where you're coming from.

We have one of these places on the Gold Coast here. It's strange phenomena. Maybe it IS a sea creature. You can't just say 'it's fake' without explaining why. It was so easy to fake pictures before the internet age. It may be fake, maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowsleet Posted December 30, 2004 #24 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I remember I saw these pics online ages ago...people were going on about how "fantastic" they looked, and how they left them in no doubt....I don't see it myself. To me, the pics look very unnatural...the creatures features look very much like they've been added in articifially, and I'm not altogether impressed. While I certainly do believe, if we're going to find any "monsters" on earth, the sea is where to look, I don't consider these pics good examples Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
