26-01-2020: Accidental UFO Capture Villiers, Free State, South Africa
Witness Description:
Yesterday evening we were travelling on the N3 highway northbound between Warden and Villiers on our way back to Gauteng. I was taking photos of a beautiful sunset with golden clouds. the photos were being taken through the side window of our moving vehicle.
There was a set of three that I took in quick succession using the camera motor drive (Nikon D5600); on the first one there is a tiny distant, indistinct object that to me looks like a ufo when I zoom in on that area on my computer; on the second and third photos there is no sign of the same black shape.
When I zoomed in on that section of the photo, the object although very indistinct does seem to be saucer shaped.
I am posting the first photo - you do need to zoom in to see the object on the photo which is to the right of the center of the image.
I'd be interested to know what others think it might be.
At the time of actually taking the photo I was totally focused on the beautiful clouds and I did not see any flying objects of any sort in the vicinity.
I have not altered the photo in any way and I have the original on my memory card.
Thank you for the opportunity to submit my photograph.
BEAMS Comment: A truly excellent catch indeed, but we cannot identify this mysterious aerial silhouette... although it's pretty safe to conclude it's not that of a birdie!
