look at these photos i just took !!!!!!!!!!!!

i just took these photos in alamogordo newmexico, these things are up in the sky!!!!! what the hell are they???? when you just look at them they are still and a ball of light some flash red, blue,orange, the one is just white..... but when i snapped pics of them they look like this

link to my album

i swear these pics are real and not hoaxed, this isint the first time i have seen weird crap here in nm, couple of weeks ago i saw a big red thing i started a thread on, every since then these things can be seen in the sky!!

I have shot some of these myself in AZ, snapping pictures just into the night sky....
I wonder what it is or what causes it?

Shakey hands and slow shutter speed me thinks...

EDIT: Or long exposure time, or something...I have no idea, but I know I'm right.

I think it's a machine where people can make drawings and it shows on the sky, Im not sure but I saw a video a long time ago about it. I'll see if I can find it.

I found it!

Could this be it?

i dont know, but they move and sometimes really fas , but tonite they were really still and bright, and when i took the picture and checked them out i was all kindsa baffled why are they all squiggly?

Hey cool pics but what you need is a high speed camera. because waht it kinda looks like is an effect of light when you take pictures of it.

Now when you tok these pictures could you see the lines? or was it one spot?

Come on dude, really? Is that the best you could do?

me thinks you struck the proverbial nail on the head

Ive seen these for years, as well as rods, they are all camera tricks.

they were a spot but really close and bright and they changed colors

Yeah,night mode increases the frames exposure...so yeah...light turns into UFO's

and they look weird either freaking way pic or no pic

I've seen this effect before numerous times. I'm 90% sure it's shakey hands and long exposure time.

The EXIF data on the images show:

Exposure Time (1 / Shutter Speed) [0x829A] 2/1 second ===> 2 second
Lens F-Number / F-Stop [0x829D] 28/5 ===> ƒ/5.6
Exposure Program [0x8822] creative program (slow program, depth of field)

I'm obviously not an expert, can anybody tell if that's slow?

take a picture of your computer case with the side off so you can see the fans.

now turn off the flash and turn on some low lighting so you can light up the case without the flash.

compare the pics...

The pic with the flash will make the fans stand still due to the high light/ shutter speeds.
The pic with the low lighting will look like the fan is a total blur... its all in how the camera processes the light...

oh yes,2 second shutter speed is SLOW.

True, but if you know how to use your camera... you would know what you are taking a pic of...

The best way to get a shot of these lights would be to get a decent HD camcorder.... Still frame images in low light will NEVER develop correctly unless you have a very expensive setup.

i took pictures of fans before...high ISO low exp.

slow shutter speed or not these things in the sky are weird , what settings do i have to change to get a good photo then
