Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The main object shows a semi-spheric shape with a lateral pipe. It seams to have a irregular non hard surface with some protuberances. The material reflects the light in different colors depending of the angle. Color seems to be like silver or metal (but not the texture).

Size of Object(s)

Relative size: Impossible to see at naked eye. Actual size: 4 meters wide 2, 5 high.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

Estimated distance to the object: 7 km. High: from 0 meters to 900 meters high in 6 seconds.

Description of Area / Surroundings

The object take off from a industrial restricted area close to the docks of the Barcelona harbor, -as seen in Google Earth image. Note that this day was on Sunday, with few or none activity. The situation can easily deducted by the gas tanks reference compared with the photo satellite. Also the size of the object, that has been calculated by the extrapolation of the size of the tank (see Google images).

Full Description & Details

Sunday afternoon at home in Barcelona. Without any previous plan I decided to go up to the top of the building to test my new 100-400 telephoto lens. Was a suddenly decision to go up there, a place where usually I don´t go. From the roof of the building I can see a general view of the city. It was a very clear day and an extremely clean atmosphere. I begun to shot without too much motivation from left to right at several buildings and objects of the town.

Suddenly, when I was pointing a lonely gas tank that no motivated me at all in order to shot, I saw in the center of viewfinder something moving from the ground going up straight. I could not identify what it was because it had a very little relative size even using the telephoto lens but while it was moving up I begun to shot. After two seconds the object changed the direction and went going up in diagonal direction to the left hand side. I had enough time to make 4 photographs because the phenomena lasted not more than 6 seconds. After this, the object disappeared and was impossible to see again. I had a strange feeling but I did not thought about UFO, I supposed this was a lonely paper or plastic bag flying, or may be a balloon , so I did not paid too much further interest on it.

Was when I downloaded the files in the computer when I could check that it was an exceptional document by this reasons:

1- I could see a strange semi-spheric object with a lateral pipe. It not seems to be metal but like "organic" because the irregular texture of its surface.

2- The same object apparently adopted different shape in every photograph. Is like it was transforming while moving -or may be because a rotation movement-.

Nevertheless this allow to see the same artifact in different angles. -This can be perfectly seen in the main 4 photographs set.-

3- Surprisingly, after a filtering in high contrast B&W I discovered 5 flying objects more behind the main one.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Not at all. The speed and shape of the object, and the group of other flying objects discovered behind the main one is a clear prove of a non common human object.

Witness Background

I work in marketing, web and advertising design and photography, University education.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I had several experiences of UFO sightings before this, like suddenly look to a determinate area of the sky and see several bright spheres (in the day). After this sighting I had two other experiences, one of them was also photo-recorded. This was a blur object that appeared in a photograph but that I never saw when I shot . I´am interested about the UFO phenomena and read different books and info. But I never went to a determined place looking for an UFO nor thinking to shot one. Every time I have had this kind of experiences I was not thinking about the phenomena, simply it occurred.

Other Comments

As other similar experiences with UFO, the feeling is like there is something beyond the casualty which allows you to see or to shot them.

As a photography expert I would like to insist about the extremely low probability to coincide with a moving object impossible to see at naked eye using a 12º narrow angle lens. I know, that is not a scientific therm but is like "somebody put the object in the center of the frame".

The original files are in RAW Canon format, this means no manipulation or alteration can be done on the original file. Due to the little apparent size of the object, the images that I send are magnified parts of the original takes. Some of them filtered in order to reinforce the contrast but of course non any kind of manipulation at all.

For further investigation I could provide the original raw files.
