Report
from the witness, Civil Engineer Germán Pereira:
"I'm
from Concepción and have been working in Santiago
for little over a year. On May 10, this year, I decided
to take some photos at Parque Forestal, taking some 10
shots which I downloaded to my PC, the following day."
"I
thought it would be interesting to photograph a group
of Carabineros (state police) on horseback patrolling
the sector. The photo was taken at 17:40 hrs approximately
from the corner of JM de la Barra and Av. Cardenal José
María Caro, in front of Bellas Artes and looking
east."
"It
was a cloudy day and the sun was hidden, for which reason
my digital camera (Kodak DX6490) adjusted to low speed
(1/10 seg.). This is the reason why the photo shows motion
(those knowledgeable about photography will know the reason
why). Furthermore, the Carabineros were som 20 meters
distant, and I employed the camera's optical zoom (10x)
which added to the blurred result."
"The
fact is that I am very impressed by this image. I attest
to the fact that it is not a fraud nor anything similar.
For this reason, I have made it public and I contacted
the staff of CIFAE Chile. I would like to know the true
nature of the image that appears in it and if anyone has
ever caught anything similar in a photo. Nothing more."
