Default Time Traveler Caught in Museum Photo

Found this:

Time Traveler Caught in Museum Photo? | forgetomori

So what do you think? Is it a time traveler? Photoshop?

Anyway I found it pretty amusing.

some folks seem to defy the conventions of the time they inhabit,[[ i hope i do ].... its just means they were way ahead [or behind their time ] or detatched from it ...[ horrified by it?] .but not "from" another....time....in a scientific, temporial sense..............

It looks to me like a perfectly normal tall student from the time, I don't think its a hoax/insertion/anachronism. Who the hell would do their hair like that today?!- other than my Dad.
(Its not my Dad by the way)

The picture is not a fake.. Just a hip man ahead of his time.. I love this picture. Just loves the way he looks out of place, looks like he´s from "our" time. All the others would stand out with their hats and suits now.

But what camera does he carry? Is it a E-P1?

Vidar, you know that I am extremely fond of you but I think it's time for you to perhaps cut back on some of your work and take a vacation.

These kinds of photos are definitely fun. I think someone posted something similar on the forum quite a while ago...or am I having a recovered memory? No, wait I think it might have been from some scifi movie...if only I could could remember it...they were people who witnessed events....
Thanked by Vidar.
