Yet some creatures returned 2 the water so yes it is possible they adapted again to deal with this. Snakes and turtles a fine example. Most snakes live on land yet a small percentage went aquatic. Why ?? Maybe there is something in Loch Ness that has done the same and we could ask Why??? again. Im sure something returning 2 water would adapt again 2 stay under water 4 longer. Tim has made a good point here, interesting.sidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358999656752738469.post-61555609750391769292014-07-13T11:16:01.280-07:002014-07-13T11:16:01.280-07:00My contention is that the non-appearance of the or...My contention is that the non-appearance of the original negative is because MacNab may have been in the habit of producing negatives of photos of photos. He should have just sent Mackal a photo taken from the original negative, if he wasn't prepared to send the original negative. The negative he sent Mackal is at best 2 steps removed from the original. <br /><br />My belief is that there are not monsters close to the size of Urquhart Castle swimming in the loch. Therefore I am very suspicious of MacNab's entire photographic process. That's all I can say - this negative saga should ring alarm bells for everyone.

Explain the benefit of this so called subterfuge to MacNab? Why muddy the waters? Why not send the "original" negative? Perhaps because 20 years on, the original is the worse for wear in some way?<br /><br />You ask what use it is? If most of the information is transferred between negatives, then plenty of use. Besides, without thw full context of the original letter from MacNab to Mackal, it's speculation.<br /><br />Now answer me, cui bono?

Not helpful in making a judgement as to what Mr. MacNab original intent was in the letter.<br /><br />It cold have said "copy of the original" in the source letter which changes the meaning completely. And you presume deceit. Deceit to what end? The image MacNab sent complicated the issue for Mackal, surely not the intent of MacNab who wanted a clean interpretation? Why add complexity to the issue unless MacNab's original negative had suffered deterioration over the passing 20 years?<br /><br />You are looking for problems that are not there, as I suggest in my original article on the photogrpah.<br />Glasgow Boyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03597014995112568086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358999656752738469.post-80085774785323620392014-07-13T05:55:06.688-07:002014-07-13T05:55:06.688-07:00GB, to lend a researcher a negative which turns ou...GB, to lend a researcher a negative which turns out to be a negative of a photograph taken of the original photograph, is - by any definition - deceitful, unless this situation was made clear at the time of the lend. And we know from Mackal's book that he was led to believe he was being loaned the original negative. What use would a secondary negative be for research purposes?<br /><br />I would never support this behaviour from a sceptic, and you should not excuse it from MacNab.Geordie Scepticnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-358999656752738469.post-83638027252995797972014-07-13T05:47:19.214-07:002014-07-13T05:47:19.214-07:00Great news, we're going to be able to scrutini...Great news, we're going to be able to scrutinise this photo Jake's been posting about.

The circumstances over the best pics ive seen are very good so it makes the photos even better if u know what i mean :)) one of the photos i saw was taken off a mobile phone on the south shore by a huge sceptic friend of a friend.
