HI,

I am not sure if this has already been posted. Any thoughts?

http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/...-braxton-beast/

I'm with one of the bloggers there,it's a leaf. The object is in front of the tree,The arms are the curl up of the dead and falling leaf ,hence the look of symmetry for where the arms would be. My guess is thats it's a few inches tall and looks larger and behind the tree based on distortion and pixelation . Even if you look at the "edging" enhancement pics which was supposed to prove its not a leaf, you can see that they overlap the front of the tree.

The leaf is probably only inches or a few feet away from the camera ,thats what also cause the distortion when there is no such distortio in the rest of the background of the image behind the tree.

Updated post - Photos enhanced

how can it be a leaf if cametrackers are triggerd by heat? I have tried to set mine off by throwing b*lls and other objects infront of the camtracker to no avail. Im not sure if there are plain ol motion activated cametrackers, it would seriously waste some film. The object seems to be in range of a camtracker, if this were a nightime photo all we would see is flash. I just dont see this being a leaf or bird.

Man, I love these fuzzy pictures! Fourth one in a month!
After carefully tweaking it with my trusty Photoshop......turns out it's none other than........

the original

Edited to remove "original" picture...I hope.
Edited again...I guess that didn't work!

It's Batman!!

I'm put off by the weird blurring. It's pronounced in some spots and not so much in others. That doesn't seem right for a leaf. It's strange that it is lit up like it is, but if the camera has a flash and the fur has a reflective quality.. not sure there is any fur like that on a living animal, but isn't fake fur often glossy looking?

It also looks a lot like it's much smaller than we think. A couple of the photo enhancements show the leaves near the "feet" of the object are pretty large in comparison to the figure. I have the thought that maybe this is the hind end of some animal running away from the camera. It doesn't look real good for that, but at least that explains why some parts blur more than others -- the "batman ears" up top would be the tip of a moving tail, the blurred legs are actually moving legs, the less blurred body would be less blurred by virtue of having been moving less than the legs and twitching tail. And perhaps the "glowing" quality is an effect lent to the picture by virtue of the blurring of the moving image?

That speculation comes from someone totally unfamiliar with how these cameras work. I'm assuming it's digital and has an aperture speed and these facts mean something, but someone else would have to carry this theory forward.

*edit* Nevermind.. not even worth it.. enjoy "leaf- squatch'..

Looks like a to me. Unless Bigfoot is neon.

There's no slowing down the silver bullet, except for a big beer gut. Try coors light, fatboy-slim.

I think I have an open mind. Not so open that my brains have fallen out. I try to see what I'm looking at, instead of what I want to see. Here's what I see.... I see a very blurry naked man. He's not in excellent shape. He's a "clicker". That means he's in danger of getting carpel-tunnel syndrome from flipping through the TV channels. He's got a pretty good start on a beer belly.

There's some hope here, however, if he changes his ways, drops the channel changer, and starts walking a mile or so every day, preferably with his clothing on, until his body shapes up. He should also watch his diet. If he lives in an area where children are present, he definitely should be dressed. Kids really need roll models, and we don't want them confused. Let them keep their dreams about growing up & having the perfect life/body/wife/family/job, etc., as long as they can.

To see something like that, unless he's old & you're married to him, and you sincerely love him, is not appropriate. For all you women out there, if he belongs to you, you two really need to have a talk because his behavior is really getting out of control. He needs some guidance. Do it. Help him. Don't let him do this anymore.

I know a naked man when I see one, no matter how blurry. That really is one.

As far as this goes, My pathetic little head is a steel trap. Decided... mind closed as a steel trap. I have better things to do. This is silly. I'm outta here.

P.S.,... A real hunk woulda been nice, though...

Oh fer...

It's freakin' Batman!

I don't know how to do that side-by-side comparison thing, so bear with me.

Here's the 'Braxton Beast':

Nevermind. The Batman pic came out huge, no matter what I did. Trust me it's him.

What's a bitmap?

Looks like the Heat Miser.....
And remember he's Mr. 101.

walkingcarpet,

A bitmap is an itty-bitty bit of a map, as in picture.

Seriously, it has something to do with pictures/photos. & I think how you save an image. If someone tells you, then please let me know! (I'm serious about the "letting me know" stuff).

I'm not getting any younger. Before I die I'd really like to learn this stuff. Maybe I should take a course... Or just ask one of my kids.

Leaf, not! My Butt!!! It's a naked man. Blurry. Maybe he had too many beers for his growing belly. Maybe he's perfectly sober & just surpassed the speed of the shutter?

Either way, naked man, and should be ashamed of himself. He will be, when he sobers up! He just needs a nice little woman to guide him through life, to grow old together with, to bicker with when they're in their 70's, and die semi-happy sometime beyond that! KISS

Editted for additional comment...

I do have to say that this is the best blobsquatch we've had to debate in a long time! At least it's fun!

Good line ....worth highlighting.

The actual quote is:

Keeping an open mind is a virtue, but not so open that your brains fall out.

Im totally with JimF on this. Thats a leaf if I ever saw one. its the right colour for the time of year too.

Oh, please don't think I was being original with that "brains falling out" stuff! You may be right about where the original quote came from, but I was quoting someone from this forum. I think it was JayleeD! Not sure, coulda been Arsquatch, but it was on another thread. It just left such a lasting picture in my mind, like that commercial with the oriental man in it where his head suddenly splits open and devours whatever, that I just had to use it!

And I still see a naked man, not a leaf! I'm past menopause, not lusting after a little leaf, or whom or whatever...

Anyway, I certainly don't see a bigfoot there! No way, nada...

ecwool, by the way, thanks, 'cause I didn't know the source of the quote!

I realize I said I was outta here a post or two ago, but then I had another thought or two...

Consider me frivilous if you like, but I said what I saw in this. I'm not going to get into analyzing crotches of the leaf or whether it was in front or behind the tree. That's what I saw. I'm not capable of seeing any more from it. It's just not clear enough for me to clutter up the thread commenting on it.

Once again, a hunk woulda been nice...

Judging by the size of the wood in the wood pile in the far right, it's either a leaf or a 4' tall naked man. Either that or the guy is cutting some really big firewood. I say leaf.........

Again, conferring with Santa and the Easter Bunny on this subject, we believe this is either St. Patrick out for a jog or Punxsutawney Phil.

Intersting,looks likeyou can clearly see bending knees,walking,and arms at its side.Too blurry,but intersting

I have no idea of what this is, but it does look like there is some snow on the ground. If so, not sure what that means either, but I think that it would reduce the "fire" theory. Too bad that there is not a time stamp on the image for reference. It would also help to know what direction the camera is facing. Just too little info to make a reasonable judgement. Would be nice to have someone visit the place and gather some data.

It is the ass end of a deer walking away.
