hangliding and ufo over spring hill

A couple of days out from the winter solstice and we thought we’d go hang gliding at Spring Hill… we checked the wind conditions before we left home but there was nothing in the forecast about UFOs… I feel a bit like Donnie Darko and can’t sleep at night and sometimes feel something moving inside me.

Photos by Nancy Porker, here’s the full set.

Where is Spring Hill? Whilst out playing golf with my mates on the weekend at Belco we saw a couple of hanggliders. Perhaps its just the shine off my mate’s nut as he’s bald as a badger.

Dammit, I only came to the thread to do a reptoid joke!

Or are you perhaps referring to the reflection of the sun off the surface of a dam, in the bottom of the picture, which appears to ‘move’ across the screen in the slideshow sequence?

All I see is some lens flare. Move along.

Its ‘lens flair’ look at the second last image, it is infront of the hang glider.

‘lens flair’ is when you do it on purpose 😉

Well glare from the sun then.. either way it aint no UFO

Absolutely.
A lot of unidentified images are just identified optical artifacts. Someone posted a great link to wikipedia a few weeks ago.

Next time you take photos looking at the sun, make sure you remove the UV filter from your lens.

Okay? Now you can sleep tonight.

Whoa! The mothman prophecies are coming true! Would you explain yourself to a cochroache…

Run for your lives!…

I think you’ll find they’re hangliders.

oh – so that’s not the sun moving! that’s a UFO?

I think the camera had some LSD.
