A friend of mine, who is also a member of this Forum, left  4 months ago, and has been having such a good time, he hasn't been on for quite a while.

He e-mails me his most recent Pics. periodically.  I have a great [ I think it is anyway] UFO shot that he took somewhere near The Devils' Marbles.

He didn't see it at the time, and only noticed it when he up-loaded the Pics. from his camera.

I'll have to get his permission to post it, or maybe he'll do it himself.

Cheers,
Sheba.

I do have another Pic. of what is supposed to be a Ufo in Central Australia some-where, that I Googled a while ago.

I can't verify the authenticity of this one though.

I'll wait until my friend has posted his, before I post that one.

Cheers,
Sheba.

Sheba has mentioned this shot,which I took at Devils Marbles around dusk,and I didn't notice the supposed UFO in shot until I downloaded to the computer and it seemed like broad daylight..many may say..a fly on the lens..a speck of dust or some strange happening within the camera or computer..but whatever "it" is,I'd love to think that it "may" be something extraterrestial.I wasn't p....d,I am relatively sane(although some may disagree)so for what it's worth here it is,
Cheers

May I just add that after this "encounter" I moved to Wycliffe Well,the supposed UFO capital of Oz,bought a nice bottle of wine and sat out in the CP until 3am watching the heavens and hoping that I would see more..but nothing..the " visitors" must all have still been up the road at the Marbles.
As any traveller is well aware there is magic in the night skies..get out of the towns and cities and the skies put on a show every night.
I love this land

I was there a couple of days ago, but I didn't see anything extra-anything.
I was seriously amazed at the granite formations in that valley, which on their own are a rare phenomenon.
It reminded me of Murphys Haystacks near Streaky Bay on SA's west coast. The Haystacks are a granite outcrop in limestone country.
The Marbles cover a much larger area, and among another type of rock.

Several years ago my ex and I were driving through min min country at night, and he'd been telling me stories of the min min lights. I needed to 'relieve myself' so we pulled up, and if anyone's been in that country, there's no trees, no bushes, nothing to hide behind. Not that it mattered on that lonely stretch of road at night. Anyway, he started shining the torch to the sky near the horizon. It was enough to scare the bejeezus out of me! devil.gif  eyepopping.gif

But no, haven't seen any 'real' min min lights etc.

I have never seen a U.F.O. but i did once see a U.F.B.
It was a cold night and i was walking out a room after a heated discussion when all of a sudden an unidentified flying barometer whizzed past my head missing me by about two inches and smashing against a wall.
All i said to her was,,"i think you might have a spider hiding up your nose because i can see its legs sticking out."

Happens to me all the time Sheba. It is frustrating and I usually can't see avatars on here either.

This is one my wife took over the house here in Perth and it is not the spotlight from the police chopper.  There was no aerial activity in the area at the time.  We do not know what it is.

Ps:- Edited for typo.

Looks like "they are out there!" from those pics!

Not really UFO's, but when camped out in Central Australia, away from city lights, it is easy to see satellites as they travel accross the sky, and the occasional falling star. Had to get a new folding chair with a headrest!

I don't have a great deal of computer knowledge Sheba and Firefly, but it seems to me that you have some settings a bit tight.

Are you within 50 miles [sorry, don't know what that would be in K's.] of a Military or Naval installation ?

I remember during the War, we used to see the spotlights of Brisbane at night, in the Sunshine Coast area, which is about 50 miles away.

I would think if it was an Arial Spot, it would be narrower at the high-point.  This one looks like it starts at ground-level to me.

Cheers,
Sheba.

Sorry folks, the other reply was very slow coming through, so did this one.   Now I can't delete it. I tried.
Hope Cindy gets back, and she might do it.
Do you live within 50 Miles of a Defence Force Installation ?   During the War, living on the Sunshine Coast, we used to see the Spotlights of Brisbane at night.

An Aerial Spot would be narrower up in the sky.

Cheers,
Sheba.

Hi Beth,

When this first happened, everything was fine one day, [had been for years] and not the next.   I had not changed any settings.

Cheers,
Sheba.

You could have a valid point there Sheba, yes we live only a few Kilometers from the Naval base at Garden Island in Rockingham WA.

I saw lovely roses growing out of the rock wall coming up the putty road one morning at around 3am.  Didn't feel like I had any weight on the trailer and instead of a bogie tri-axle set up the truck was moving on rollers.   And NO I wasn't on yippies, just totally exhausted.
