SIGHTING: HILLSBOROUGH, NEW BRUNSWICK (CANADA)

Witness Testimony

"On Sept. 17, 2009 at exactly 11:30 am I went down to the Peticodiac River to take pictures, it was a high tide at high noon, rare & good light for photos. I took 40 shots looking SouthWest & panned to the left & back to the right again, using different zoom levels. Because the LCD display is hard to view in strong ambient light I often don't see small objects & this was the case. I loaded them into my PC & discovered the object in two frames out of 47 in total...but, after searching with various levels of magnification, this object appeared in 14 of the 47 frames. I have a good PC with a very good graphics card & application & zoomed these objects in almost to the individual pixel & it maintained a circular shape...I live on the river at the Bay of Fundy also near the Moncton flying club & I'm a pilot...I very familiar with birds & aircraft being in my local pictures & there were some in this series as well, but all of those exposed wings ay high magnification. Of the 14 images of the object all but two only show that something of circular shape is in the distance & I may have ignored these if not for the one, No. DCC02255 (2), that is obviousely a saucer shaped object at an angle, low on the horizon above a house. The house is across the river & is approximately 1 mile distant. It is very clear & seams to show a shine on the top with a dark shaded bottom. The second, No. DSC02246, is more distant in a quadrant of the sky just south of the first image & appears to have a streak above/behind it, like a shadow on the clouds...or it could look like a weather balloon...one has to view these two images & come to a professional opinion. The other 12 frames with the object have images of a circular object at various degrees of clarity, some are an obvious circular object where others are just a dot that does not show any wings under magnification & could be a flying insect perhaps...they have a degree of interest however by the coincidence of being part of a series of pictures that do reveal an object. All pictures will be made available to you as is any other information I can add."
