While reading about shutter speeds and ufos, I came across this nice picture an amateur photographer snapped while trying to catch the rotor blades of a helicopter.
Camera: Sony Digital SLR - SLT A55V
Shutter speed: 1/250sec

Thoughts?

Most likely a bug flew into shot, seeing as the photographer was taking a pic of the helicopter.

I'm guessing Bird.

Not positive though.

Rock.

Just kidding, but not clear enough to really determine it to be anything to me.

It's too in focus to be a bug and doesn't look anything like a bird. I'm having a feeling of deja'vu

Merry New Year

I recognize that one from when I was a kid in 1956. I watched it go from horizon to horizon while laying on a picnic table. You would think they would change styles over the years, we do with our planes and cars.

No kidding. Do you recall the general attitude back then if/when you had brought it up?

I guess what's suspect is the fact that he wanted to take a photo of the helicopter, but then didn't download the photo for 6 weeks after? Then waited another year and a half before viewing the images???


However, he remembers with crystal clarity there were no birds in the area....after possibly 19 months.


Wow...

It's not a stretch to think birds might have been scared off by a loud lumbering helicopter.

It likely looks above the chopper because it's pushing towards grey which is a lack of saturation. Human eyes associate low saturation with being further away. However, blur can also cause a lowering of color saturation ... so we can't really be 100% certain.

It's a bit of a Kennedy style bullet issue also ... because if it's further away, then motion blur would be less likely to take. If it's behind the helicopter it would be going quite some speed I imagine. [B]But[/B] if it's going that speed and experiencing that blur then it's very unlikely to be the flying saucer shape it appears to be in the first place.

The camera is pointing up at the sky. So IF this is a 'UFO' it is flying at a right angle to the ground!!

Logically this excludes it being a craft. I would say insect or bird. Perhaps a bit of rubbish. Who knows. Just think of the angle of the camera (Pointing mostly upwards) you would not get what looks like a side on shot of a craft, would you?

Why not? If it is a craft flying I don't see why it can't be on its side.

Explain why it would be.

This is the most stupid comment I have read for years!

I mean..... what are the chances? lol

Why is it stupid? Aircraft don't do flat turns do they,they have to partly roll or bank the plane to the direction they're turning.

Then let's hear why it can't be on its side or please explain from your infinite wisdom how 'rubbish' gets into a photograph above a helicopter ?

I'll reserve my judgement till after I hear your stellar response.

How can we be sure it is above the chopper ?

The only thing in clear focus is the telegraph pole, therefore anything in front of that or behind it (as in the chopper) can be out of focus....But a bird flying above the chopper could not imo fly fast enough to cause that type of blurring....whereas a bug in close up would appear to.
