SALT LAKE CITY -- Up in the sky -- a bird? -- or a flying saucer?
To the naked eye, Tommy Woodard's digital photo appears to be nothing more than a pretty picture of trees in Provo Canyon, Utah. But zoom in, he says, and the purple glow of a saucer hovering at an angle above the tree line starts to take shape.
The photo librarian with the Utah Film Commission says he's a "believer" in UFOs because as a 10-year-old he saw three blurry gray spheres rotating in the sky before suddenly disappearing.
A representative of the National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle thought the sphere looked like a bird. Woodard scoffs at that, as well as the theory that the image could be nothing more than a speck of dust on his film.
He says none of the 100 photos he shot Tuesday contained a similar mark. The war of the skeptics and the believers continues.
