The witness says:

One day, looking through a Family photo album, I noticed this photo taken at Niagara falls somewhere somewhere in 1910. None of the family members didn't notice it until I pointed it out in 2018.

Original news

Date of sighting: 1910

Location of sighting: Niagara Falls

Source: MUFON #104308

 

A person was going through some old photo and came across one of Niagara falls. Above the falls was a classic disk UFO. The raised upper center area is clearly a dome. The object is large and is recorded from the bottom area of the falls. It looks like its about size of a city bus. If it was hovering there, surly the person must have seen it, but if it was speeding past and inadvertently got caught in the photo, the person would not know until they saw the photos later. Either way, its an awesome classic disk.

Eyewitness states: 

One day going through Family photo album I noticed this photo taken at Niagara Falls some where between 1910. No body in the family has noticed it either until I pointed it out in 2018. Look for your self and then you tell me what it is? Sure matches the description one would give back then.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Objects in motion, captured on a long exposure

Most often this artifact is called skayfish if the lens gets a passing bird or insect. It is based on the discrepancy between the speed of the video and the frequency of the flapping of insect wings. Essentially, each video drops a few strokes of the wings of an insect, which when viewed looks like "arrow", provided with long protuberances. The motion of the insect by its translucent body seems to "boom" and vibration of the wings give the appearance of bumps.

Birds

Due to the peculiarities of the bird's flight, it is possible to capture a moment in the photo when an ordinary bird will resemble a "classic" UFO in shape.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

Probably this bird, shot in traffic (what seems to us the dome is probably the wings of a bird).
