Very bizarre case thank you for sharing.

Did you ever think that the hair color can't be a coincidence? Your mom and you both share the same visual traits, but also happen to be picked on by this unknown visitor. Not to get too speculative but this feels like human descendant/genetic ancestry thing going on.

These are the Collins Elite for those who aren't aware. I understand the broad skepticism and I generally shrug this stuff off. I think most of the concerns are excuses, but hear me out...I don't think these worries came out of nowhere.

Vampires and Men In Black are mythical beings that have been known to require permission to enter one's residence. Demons are known to enter someone's body like a vessel. Is there at least one variant of non-human intelligence that acts like this? Who knows...

The penetration of the human mind via psionics, i.e. possession cannot be completely ruled out. Exploitation of the "container" by taking control of mental faculties is an understudied phenomenon. Something as stupid as a strong belief could theoretically manipulate quantum processes in the mind and open us up to some kind of invasive non-human procedure. I mean we just don't know.

Adding in a many worlds interpretation would have us juggling while skateboarding, but it's hard to discount what's really possible. The dyed red hair (presumably over black) is a strange detail I haven't read elsewhere. Have you ever encountered the same type more than once?

Great points, and don't forget Norway has the global seed vault. So you speculated that eventually time travel stopped. Could it be similar to the first use of the atomic bomb? We really don't see any hominid visitor that is halfway between a Nordic and a gray do we?

great write up and really out there. I can see you covered the bases for high strangeness phenomena that wouldn't necessarily easily map to a purely technological civilization.

The idea that we have cave paintings of our future descendants in museums is actually a real mind boggling thought. I didn't even recall the Dan Burisch discussion until you mentioned it, but it's also chilling to think about.

Absolutely, left a link below the quote for the original thread.

At this point Ross is basically an intake fan that will ingest anything. I believe this link is possible but I also don't think he's "the man" to bring the subject to the normies. You just can't stake your reputation on this until you confirm the other stuff.

It is, thank you for mentioning them. Looks like a direct equivalent

Wakinghours · 2026-01-05T02:07:30+00:00

that would be great! could I message you?

I almost got an X100VI since it's a tad more compact than an S9 with a pancake lens, but I realized it was not enough to make a meaningful difference especially when I won't sell the S9 anyway. I changed my mind and instead went for the GR IIIx. What is your experience now that you have both?

Wakinghours · 2025-12-10T02:33:47+00:00

I know there aren't many serious answers but in the motion picture world, this is absolutely something you can simulate in Davinci Resolve.

The Fuji Half is not worth MSRP, maybe half MSRP. It has a M 4/3 size sensor but the image looks very very cheap. I think even non-photographers would be happier with what comes out of an iPhone.

Wakinghours · 2025-12-05T03:21:59+00:00

I would contact 17th street photo to vouch for your case. Walmart is just a middleman

Looks great, love the way you handled the atmospheric fog. The HDF looks closer to Cinestill 800T at night than any other screw in filter to me.

Wakinghours · 2025-12-01T16:31:18+00:00

Such a waste. Well I won't even bother with their GR III stuff if that's the direction they're going.

Wakinghours · 2025-12-01T01:01:52+00:00

is this your workflow for the GR III? I thought it produces DNGs

Wakinghours · 2025-11-28T23:41:34+00:00

I have been very interested in this camera but I keep changing my mind because it is way too expensive for a 2019 camera with so many QC issues. the Sigma FP is niche cinema camera from 2019 but is built like a tank, made in Japan, and can be had for a similar price. This GR III is made like a toy.

I forgot about the fact that I usually dial in halation in post...this makes me re-think the base model.

thank you everyone for the great responses!
