UM-Bot Posted May 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2015 A controversial new video claims to have cracked an alternative version of the Da Vinci code. Ever since Dan Brown's popular novel 'The Da Vinci Code' was published there has been a surge of interest in identifying hidden symbolism within the paintings of the Renaissance genius.

Popular Post Talion78 Posted May 16, 2015 Popular Post #5 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I love listening to the video....."once we add colour, shadow and highlights we can see a figure"......in other words "once I draw a picture of a figure, we can begin to see a figure" Laughable 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoPaul Posted May 16, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 16, 2015 This doesn't even warrant an article. If you take ANY landscape photo and mirror in some way you are going to create some monster/alien/dragon or something, especially if you play around with colours and effects. The guy that discovered this and went to the effort to explain it probably has never seen a naked girl before and probably never will if he spends all his time locked away in a dark room pretending he has found aliens in things he tampers with! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+and-then Posted May 16, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 16, 2015 That is some mighty fine hiding, since it took until modern photoshop was invented to "find" it... I used to scan with MRI and we saw some very strange - and amusing - images within our images. Some were hilarious. I wonder what could be found in a random image made today that was subjected to all those steps of filtering and enhancing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freetoroam Posted May 16, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) With the technology here, why do i think we are going to see a lot more of these popping up? and there are people who are going to believe it!, there always are, thats why they do it.

Use your brain Posted May 16, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Da Vinci was known for Mirror Writing, which is why it is popular to use this technique with his artwork. I have seen various other artworks of his with anomalies in them similar to this one, also there were ways to mirror images before computers were around, however it just wasn't as easy or as popular. Those saying that you need to have photoshop or similar software to do this are incorrect. While I am not saying that he intended for this image or others like it to be present, it is possible however that it was his intention and neither argument can be proven. I personally do not believe that he was trying to hide " Alien Priests " in his artwork, but honestly we just have no way to know for sure. Perhaps this is what he believed in or this is just a coincidence ( which is most logical in my opinion ). Each sides arguments are just speculation no matter how logical or illogical they are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they say you need photoshop to do the mirror imaging, but you need photoshop to enhance, color and manipulate the figure on the painting to make it look like an alien! He was ahead of his time in many ways, but don't think he did this mirroring anticipating that photoshop would come along so people would be able to see it Zam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pallidin Posted May 17, 2015 #20 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Yeah, it's bad enough when people entirely fake things, but to stoop so low as to take a legitimate image and mirror part of it, then claim it's an alien or something...
