I was trying to capture lightning from a distant storm. I was using 35mm film and a tripod bracketing exposures from 1 to 5 seconds. I had pointed my camera (Nikon FM2) in the general direction from which the lightning was occurring. I was using a cable release to trip the shutter so that no camera shake would be transfered to the picture. When the lightning would flash I would trip the shutter. I had no idea that I was capturing anything other than the lightning until I got the film processed and printed. There are 3 clear images of what appears to be a UFO. I am a professional photographer and in no way have I manipulated or enhanced these exposures. © MUFON submitter 8898 2008 - Argentina - 01-11-08 - My nephew took two almost consecutives pictures of the clouds. When he downloaded those pictures, he realized there was an object on the right side above the cables in the second shot. In the second photograph there is a hole in the clouds, that does not appear in the first one. We do not know what the object in second photograph is. They were taken in Ciudad de Isidro, Casanova, Argentina. © MUFON submitter #8816 2008 - Phoenix, Arizona - More lights over Phoenix. I don't know what's going on in Phoenix tonight (12-31-07) but it sure looks like the "Phoenix lights" all over again. I'm sending you this set of pictures, it looks very strange to me. What do you think? © Phoenix Web Cam - sent by Cristofer Ohlsson-Malmo, Sweden. 2008 - Indiana - 01-31-2008 - I was home alone and decided to go to the kitchen to get a glass of water and maybe find a snack. Just as I approached the kitchen/dining room area (they're the same room and we have a bay-window/patio door there), I noticed what I immediately thought was a helicopter about 300-400 feet away, just across the street and above the tree line. Because we kind of live in the country, I thought that was unusual... then it hit me that I couldn't hear any noise at all! And then the obvious shape difference hit me like a bag of rocks and I ran for my camera - literally (I almost tripped over a rug). I don't know how long it was there before I saw it, but it hung around for 2 or 3 minutes after I noticed it... not moving or flashing or anything. The only thing I noticed was a sort of wavy-ness of the air surrounding the object - that's probably what stuck me most, actually. It resembled kind of what you see over a hot road on a summer day. It was getting dark, but I distinctly remember the dark tree line shimmering just below the object, against the sky-glow. © MUFON submitter 9511 2008 - Ireland - Hello, my name is Bartosz Kurzeja aka Bart. I am originally from Poland. I have been living in the UK for past 8 years now. Recently I visited my brother in Dublin, and he shared this picture with me. You can clearly see an object moving very fast in the blue sky. My brother had not seen this object when he took the photograph, only after developing the picture did he notice it. Any explanation guys? I know that you have many similar pictures so I know that you are knowledgable about it. 2008 - Texas - The photograph was submitted by Mary, who states that while watching a Dallas/Ft.Worth Texas web cam, she captured the frame. It shows two objects, which are unidentified at the moment. She saw and captured the photo this morning, 02-27-08, and when the cam refreshed 10 seconds later, the objects were gone. Web cam view is from WXnation.com's headquarters in far north Fort Worth. The cam points northeast, and looks at the skies over far north Fort Worth, Keller, Southlake, Colleyville and Grapevine, TX, plus shows the airspace for both Fort Worth Alliance Airport and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. source: Dallas, Ft. Worth Web Cam 2008 - California - 04-24-08 - I was fishing on Lake Trinity, and heard the sound of an aircraft engine. It was a very low frequency sound, but I felt it more than I could actually hear it. I only had an older Sony digital camera with me, the batteries were almost dead. I snapped 4 pictures before the camera shut off, only one came out when I read the disk. Object is more or less triangle-shaped. source: www.mufon.com Additional Info: The UFO Casebook has received the following information from a reader: Wanted to let you know that photo dated 4-24-08, labeled 2008B 10539 jpg, is actually Swedish aircraft, Saab Drakken, privately owned, and currently for sale on Controller.com under under military Turbine aircraft. This is 100% positive. I am aware of the aircraft in question and it was being demonstrated on or about the date in question. NOT UFO related. 2008 - Sacramento, California - These photos are a sequence of a military plane, along with something unidentified. They were flying behind my house. Mather Air Base in about 8 miles from my house. Editor's Note: The photographer sent along eight photographs, all of them containing an object of unknown origin. I picked the best one to display here. source: www.mufon.com 2008 - California - 05-06-08 - This is a picture I took during a photo op at Ritz Carlton Dana Point. One of 26, this is the only one with this in it. I am a professional photographer. Over 500,000 actuations on this camera. Never have I had this in one of my pictures. Taken with a Nikon d2x 14-24mm lens. Editor's Note: In many photographs like these, a lens flare or camera artifact is the culprit causing the anomalous "UFO." However, in this case, we have a professional photographer who has taken a half-million snaps with his camera, and certainly he would be able to eliminate these commonplace reasons for the unknown object. source: www.mufon.com 2008 - Florence, Italy - 04-04-08 - I was on holiday in Florence, Italy, and late morning I took a photo of the River Arno, which flows through the city. I wasn`t taking any notice of what was happening in the sky. On my return to England, I transfered my photos onto my computer and printed the one of the River Arno. I was surprised to see that it included a clearly observable 'thing' in the sky. I enlarged the photo, and it appears to be a picture of a UFO. source: www.mufon.com 2008 - Durham County - BRITISH UFO researchers are to examine a photo taken of a strange object in the sky above a northeast town. Derbyshire man Barry Knaggs found the strange image when he downloaded pictures he had taken on his digital camera during a visit to Spennymoor, in County Durham, at the weekend. Mr Knaggs, 61, was returning to the town where his parents used to live on a nostalgic visit with his wife. Although the couple noticed nothing unusual at the time, Mr Knaggs says he was amazed when he downloaded the photos to his PC once back home. "When I zoomed in to have a look I had to tell myself to stop being silly," he said. "It looked like the typical fuzzy photo of a flying saucer." Mr. Knaggs sent the photo to The Northern Echo in the hope someone may be able to identify it. source: www.mufon.com 2008 - Pennsylvania - 05-29-08 -I walked out of the bar to go home, and I looked up and saw three lights in the sky. Someone said "What's that?" I said "I don't know." Several of us stood there and watched it. I kept taking pictures, and other people were taking pictures also. The lights moved seemingly independent of each other. Two lights faded away and one stayed longer. As the other light was moving away, a small airplane flew into that airspace (so it seemed to me). After it was over I definitely felt that I had seen something strange. source: www.mufon.com 2008 - Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada - End of May, 2008 - When I took this photograph when it was raining. I had gotten off work at 10:35 PM, and a storm had come into the city. As I drove home, there was a lot of lightning and wind. I parked my car in the garage. Everything got real bright for about 2 seconds, like something passed over my garage. I took out my camera and took some pictures. There was still a lot of lightning. I got something unusual on photograph DSC4671. I just took the shot, and didn't actually see the object in the frame. I noticed it later. I don't know if anyone else saw the object in the picture, but someone where I work says that she saw a very similar object about a week earlier. Greetings from Winnipeg, and thank you for your time. source: www.ufocasebook.com 2008 - Texas - The photograph was sent to me by my good friend Larry from Kaufman, Texas. On 06-09-08, he was doing his usual sky watching when he spotted an unknown object in the sky. He took a photograph, and after viewing it, he saw the object was of a triangular shape. I have posted a 740x555 pixel image below to view, and also provided a link to the 3648x2736, original sized image. Thanks again to Larry for a very compelling photograph. source: www.ufocasebook.com 2008 - Plane flight Rome to Amman - I was checking out some photos I took during my flight from Rome to Amman, on the 30th of January 2008. I didn't recognize any strange object while I was aboard, but just yesterday I discovered something unusual in one of the pictures I had taken. The sighting was around over Cyprus, 16:48 local time of Italy. The shape of the UFO was classic (low edges and domed center), far from the plane, reflecting the orange setting sun rays. Although I was in the plane while I was taking my photos, I didn't even see it with my own eyes. I didn't feel any strange thing. I have three pictures taken at the time, and on one of them you can see the UFO. Maroof - source: www.ufocasebook.com 2008 - United Kingdom - July 8 2008 - By Jo Kelly - A UFO was captured on camera as a Southport nature enthusiast snapped away at Sunday’s twister. Father-of-four Pat Regan, 51, of Sandbrook Road, was shocked when he looked at his pictures and noticed the unidentified object to the left of the funnel cloud. Mr Regan, who runs child care facilities in Formby, was fishing in Rufford Canal with his seven-year-old daughter Jasmine when the twister started. He said: “I was clinging to a railway bridge holding my camera. I thought the object might have been a police helicopter but when it’s close up, it doesn’t look like one. I’m sceptical about these things but open minded. It’s an oval shape and I would like to know what it is.” source: http://www.southportvisiter.co.uk/ 2008 - Wisconsin - 08-10-08 - I spotted an aerial stationary ring around 7:30 - 7:35 pm driving via Madison belt-line (Route 12) heading north between Old Sauk Rd. & Greenway Blvd. exits. The object piqued our curiosity enough to track it down. We drove through the nearby neighborhoods to locate a "source" on the ground and came upon a small neighborhood park (Wexford Park, Madison, WI) where we parked almost directly beneath the object. We parked past the turn-around on the corner of N. Westfield Rd. & Sawmill Road facing North/Northwest. The object was metallic in color, totally stationary, and silent. Its metallic surface was darker in color and kind of shiny with the setting sun reflecting off on some parts. We looked around the general area where there were a few kids on bikes that rode by, and seemed to not notice anything out of the ordinary. - © www.mufon.com 2008 - Indiana - On 8/08/08 - I took a picture of a black triangular UFO. Since then, I have taken more pictures trying to get another shot of the triangular object if it reappeared. Today (8/18/08) at 4:28 PM, I got a picture of a different UFO in the same general area of the sky (NE approx 60 degrees elevation). I did not see or hear the object... only a photo. Sky conditions were excellent (clear blue sky). At the top center of the photo is a white object. On zoom inspection, there appears to be a disc-like recessed surface with a rim. You can see the shadow and sunlit area typical of a rim feature. Next to the disc are white unknowns. There may be a logical prosaic explanation for the object. I could not identify it, so it's a UFO to me. © www.mufon.com 2008 - Rio Bravo, Tamaulipas, Mexico - The photographs were taken between the days of August 8 and 9, 2008. The photographer, along with other family members, witnessed the unknown objects. The submitter used a Steady Shot Sony to take the pictures. The witness often watches the skies from the balcony of his home in Rio Bravo. The photographs were taken and submitted by Jose Alonso Galicia Fabela. 2008 - Rio Bravo, Tamaulipas, Mexico, see above.
