and btw, I’m leaving my comments… thats what the box is here for …. i’m simply stating my opinion… and in my opinion, this photo is inconclusive…

I’m sure he’s a great guy and has a good reputation, but you’re asking people to believe that there’s an unknown sea serpent in norway, simply based on his reputation?

Unfortunately that doesn’t cut the mustard.

If you’d ask us to believe its a common fish, bird, etc, because its a “normal” animal, I’d have no problems taking you for your word, however you’re asking people to believe you without any solid proof.

like i said, i’m sure he’s a great guy… and i hope whatever he says he saw was real and is nor ways nessie…

but without proof it’s nothing but a story.

Don’t you dare condemn people like Andreas Solvik who put his reputation as one of Norway’s most famous international calibre marksmen to testify to the apparent living organism he saw in Hornindalsvatnet. He used his own name unlike you who hide behind a moniker to take pot shots and badly miss the target. I believe a decent respectable man like Solvik who is highly esteemed in his country when he says he saw and photographed unusual in the lake and he believes it is an unknown creature. You have no right whatsoever to say this is BS. You weren’t there you did not see it move and submerge like Solvik says he did.

I don’t mind skepticism because it is healthy. I can’t stand cynicism and cynics like you have no place in this discussion.

there’s something in the water. yes.

what is it?

you can’t tell from the photo, but to sit there and say its some unknown animal is just flat out bs.

could it be? yes

is it likely? no

this is why people think these things are fake… because people post nonsense like this and swear on their lives that its a sea serpent.

I’d only post something when its obvious beyond a reasonable doubt.

this photo is nonsense in my book.

Shill, how do you know how it moves? It’s a still photo. Also, because we don’t know anything else that looks like this, if it is real then it is an UNKNOWN creature. Norwegian lake serpents are cryptids so there is nothing else to compare them to.

alan borky, this object fits the description of Norwegian lake cryptids to a “T” and I must admit it does seem too perfect. But maybe Andreas Solvik has finally actually got a good shot of an unknown ormen in Horninsdalvatnet. Only time and further investigation will tell.

Until now at least I’d always assumed such images were to be understood as mere artistic embellishments to fill in empty space rather than representations of an actual beast.

The linked photo appears to have been cropped. The one Craig originally put up here in a thread shows a wider angle including skyline and rippled water coming from the photographer’s perspective. So I am not so sure that link is to the original photo but rather, a cropped photo of the original.

What looks like this or moves this way?
