UFO hovers near CA Navy weapons base [HOAX]

Grain of salt, but I stumbled upon this story detailing a sighting of a huge ship over a Naval base in CA.

Any first hand eyewitnesses here?

I have almost 60 photos of this sighting... you really must see them all to be able to appreciate what is going on here. From my vantage point of about a mile off of the Pacific coast, this craft was hovering on the southern horizon - probably above the electric company at the corner of Studebaker and 2nd Street/Westminster.

Anyone want to try and see if we can't get our hands on the cache of pictures so we can come to better conclusions?

I'm pretty unconvinced by the photo's so far...

yes of course. the more pictures the better. as long as the photos are relevant and show something. 800 pictures where nothing changes is useless.

but see if you can get some more.

I hate to be the one who says it.....but looks like typical long exposure while filming a known object in the sky - more than likely a plane.

I do a ton of long exposure photography of lightning and can tell you that the second two pictures are indeed a time lapse. What bothers me about saying that the pictures are of a helicopter is that there is not big group of lights under the ring or rotor.

Thank you very much.

Let's close this thread up then.

HOAX.

Yeah, it basically looks like long exposure of a plane. We had a thread not too long ago about this.

I'd love to see the 60 some pics the guy has...if he even has them.

I was getting ready to reply that this was one of the best sightings that I've read about- goes to show you that ALL facets of a sighting need to be looked at by experts in each corresponding field. (i.e. weather, photography, approximate military activity, geography, etc., etc.)

This one facet, (photography), completely invalidated the sighting for me.

Makes you wonder just how many TRUE sightings there really are.

p.s., I AM a believer, just now I'm a liitle more skeptical one!

1st you post a thread asking others to do the ground work for you.

Then you realize this is a misinfo "story".

Then you feel free to label it a HOAX after you have been busted?

Agenda anyone?

Awesome photos, good catch for a thread, it does seem that more and more UFO's are appearing everyday so I hope something happens sooner then later... We are living in interesting times!

I think this was posted lasted year, but I may be wrong, I will have to look.
