Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures:

Description: SCP-XXXX is a Nikon brand camera, model ████. Physically and functionally, SCP-XXXX is consistent with other cameras of the same model. However, in photographs captured by SCP-XXXX, an anomalous individual (designated SCP-XXXX-1) is visible in the background. SCP-XXXX-1 is a Caucasian male with dark hair, and is invariably dressed in a Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts. SCP-XXXX-1 only appears when the photograph is of a setting that is plausibly inhabitable for a human being; for example, pictures of the sky, closeups of insects, or simply darkness do not include SCP-XXXX-1.

SCP-XXXX was discovered from the following listing on the popular classified ads site, ████████.

Missed Connections: Mystery Hawaiian Photobomber!!
Looking for this guy who somehow photobombed our Italy holiday pics and my wedding photos!! Not mad, you're amazing!! Did you follow us all this way!! HAHA

The ad had attached photos of the poster of the ad, with manifestations SCP-XXXX-1 in various different locations. A Foundation operative was sent to investigate, and promptly retrieved SCP-XXXX. Further investigation into SCP-XXXX-1 has been theorised to be ████████ Smith, reported missing in 19██.

Testing revealed that SCP-XXXX-1 has control over where in the photo he manifests. Using a photo of a Foundation controlled industrial building with large labels under windows (designated Site-XXXX), communication was established with SCP-XXXX-1, as by capturing a photo of Site-XXXX, SCP-XXXX-1 is able to manifest in certain windows to convey a message. Labels include the alphabet, 'YES', 'NO', 'SPACE', 'END', with blank windows allowing for inclusion of more responses.
