Photo: UFO Near Goodyear Blimp - Williamsport, PA - August 25, 2008



Witness report:

On Monday, August 25, 2008 I was driving eastbound on Third Street in Williamsport PA when I took two pictures while driving with my LG EnV2 2.0 mega pixel camera phone of the Goodyear blimp. After reviewing the pictures later that day I noticed an object on the second picture of a cigar shaped object above the Goodyear blimp.

The day was clear and sunning without a visible cloud ceiling at 12:15 hrs EST. I was driving approximately 10-15 mph near the Rite Aid at 1913 E. 3rd Street in Williamsport in Loyalsock Twp. I noticed the Goodyear blimp off to my right and decided to take a picture of it since it was flying around Williamsport after the Little League World series games.

A minute later the blimp was directly in front of me when I decided to take the second picture. I held the phone camera with both hands and braced both arms against the steering wheel to stabilize the picture and snapped it.

After returning from the trip, I reviewed the pictures taken and noticed an object to be cigar shaped above the blimp at a 1 o’clock position when the picture was zoomed in on the blimp.

The object does appear further away than the blimp. If you scale the larger photo down so the blimp is the same size as the smaller photo, then position the two side-by-side, you can get an effective "stereoscopic" view of the scene. Simply force your eyes to focus on a point behind your monitor. As you do, you will see the two images begin to come together at a point midway between them. When you lock the blimp, powerline and UFO into place, you'll be able to tell that the UFO is further away than the blimp.

For a less subjective opinion, you could probably measure the relative left-right movement of known points in the image in order to determine which objects are nearer the camera. Objects that are nearer will move further in a left-right direction; distant objects will move less.
