user posted imageThis amazing photograph snapped over Plymouth is being called one of the best pictures of a UFO ever taken.A city-based amateur photographer captured this image when he was trying out his new hi-tech digital camera at night. It shows what can only be described as an 'unidentified flying object' hovering above St Budeaux.Another, equally stunning, snap shows the same brightly-illuminated object tilted at a different angle.UFO experts are highly excited by the pictures and the Royal Navy today asked the Herald to supply them with the photos - because they want to study them.Plymouth-based UFOlogist Bob Boyd has called the snaps among the 'best five' pictures of a UFO he has ever seen - in 25 years of spotting the phenomena. Mr Boyd, chairman of the Plymouth UFO Research Group, said: "It's the real thing." He claimed the picture had been examined by a photographic expert who confirmed it was genuine.

The man who took the photograph, a dockyard worker living in St Budeaux, didn't realise what he had snapped until he got home and inspected his pictures.

Zorcon, try not to type in ALL CAPS, some people find it quite irritating because it is considered SHOUTING - thanks.

Bizarro
hmm, im leaning fake. i just find it hard to believe one wouldnt see that object when taking a picture, even at night. its probably some reflected light or other overcompensating effect of the camera. i always love it when a 'photographic expert' claims a digital pic is genuine, even without a negative to back up the claim.

i have seen the story in the daily record today,and the photo that appears on here looks blurry compared to the newspaper,and why is it hard to believe he didn't see it when he took the photo,,,i mean it's happened a few times grin2.gif

dontgetit.gif w00t.gif Bummer and I missed it... I live where the guy lives and he's been pretty overwhelmed with the press etc..

Bob Boyd, I knew a few years ago..He's not one to go overboard on a whim and would have done his home work before comitting his name to any thing. Although I think it could be one of the lites from the Dockyard.... whistling2.gif thumbsup.gif

The UFO community doesn't do itself any favours by spouting rubbish like this. Whether the photograph is genuine or not is irrelevant. It quite clearly is NOT one of the best UFO photos ever taken.

Becuase usually the "best" photos are screaming fakes...
