The genie is a creature that appears in Germanic mythology and is a symbol of goodness. But do you know that in distant England, there have been real elves, so let's learn about this mysterious event with Lao Wu!
The mystery of the English Garden Genie incident
In December 2009, the British Daily Mail reported a very magical event: on September 7, a 55-year-old woman from the United Kingdom, Phyllis Bacon, found a "genie" in the pictures it took in 2007. She said she stumbled upon it in a photo she took while eating with her family in her garden. At that time, she was sorting through the pictures she had taken, and in a dark background, she saw the "elf".

She said that it took her months and almost the entire garden from the discovery of the "elf", but to her surprise, she did not find a single piece of evidence of the appearance of the "elf". The photograph reminds many of the shocked Kotinleui town genie fraud case in 1917, but Ms. Bacon is adamant: "I think it must be a little elf!" No one can explain this phenomenon, and no one can explain what the mysterious object in the photo is! ”

Judging from the picture, this "elf" is about tens of centimeters tall, its limbs are distinct, its hands and legs are shaped like columns, and its wings are radiant. Floating next to the tree, nothing supported it.

1. Camera imaging said
Some people think that this may be a coincidence, that the light of someone else's home is refracted by glass, and the "sprite" formed by chance may also be a problem with the camera lens or exposure. Or it may be formed by the illumination of the flash. But it's hard to explain why the malfunction-formed "genie" has limbs and heads, and has glowing wings. Moreover, looking closely at the picture, we can find that the legs of this "elf" seem to be obscured by leaves, so this cannot be a light reflection, flash, or a technical failure of shooting.

2. Therefore, it is mysterious
Others believe that the so-called "genie" is a hoax, which is specially hung on a tree. They thought that in the dark of night, the glowing objects were very conspicuous, and that Ms. Bacon was still having dinner with her family, could it be that they could not see such an obvious "elf"? Ms. Bacon, on the other hand, said she did not know what it was, but would listen to anyone and believe that the creature was a "genie" until someone gave an explanation convincing enough to convince her.
Is the "genie" real or fake?
3. Moth said
Experts believe that this object, which resembles an "elf", is just a moth, and because of the camera's flash, it illuminates the moth's wings, and the moth's wings reflect back into the light, forming the wings of the "elf". Since the picture was taken in 2007, the camera's photographic technology is not too mature, and the moths that fly by are blurred by the camera, which forms the coincidence in this photo.

Today, more than ten years have passed since the garden elf incident, and there is still no conclusion about what this so-called "elf" is, and the mystery of the elf has yet to be explored and discovered by mankind.
