Brixton, London, 11th December, 2007, U.K.
Time: 07:30am
Description: A huge ball
of light, orange-yellow in colour
My mobile alarm woke me up at 7.20am, then just before taking the stairs down to wake up my 4 year old son and for no reason I felt like looking to the sky through a small glass window.
The sky was fairly clear and blue and felt very cold. All I could see in the sky was normal: airplanes and birds, a nice day. Suddenly, a huge ball of light, orange-yellow in colour, (like fire-plasma) materialised in the sky at low altitude, close to the small white building you can see in the pics.
I also saw a very bright and white but small ball of light coming out of the building very fast and integrating into the big orange-yellow ball (This was not captured in the pictures that I took because the resolution is too low).
[NOTE: The witness looked through one of the 2nd-floor back windows, direction: towards Vauxhall and Central London.]
My reaction was to quickly set my mobile phone (V3Motorola) to take the pictures (the first 2 were taken at 7.30am, the third one was taken at 7.31am), but in a second, the UFO vanished and I never saw it flying away, I think it just vanished in front of my eyes.
Then I checked the pictures and even though they don't show exactly the same thing that I saw (colors and size and the small ball(?)), at least they are proof of record for what I saw in such a fraction of time.
The only other UFO sighting I had was years ago when I was only 7-8 years old but it was completely different and magnificient.
I was travelling in the back seat of my dad's car, going for summer holidays to his home town called Quibor in the Estado Lara, Venezuela.
I was not seated but kneeling down and looking through the wide back window of the car at high speed: the terrain around was dry plains (Llanos aridos) and small hills (Lomas), all light brown in color...and suddenly to my right I could see a huge (baseball court size), silver and lentil shaped UFO, static and levitated or floating very close to the ground.
I turned to my twin brother and parents and told them: "un ovni, un ovni" (a UFO, a UFO), but by the time I looked back (maybe 3 seconds later) it was gone or became transparent and my father kept driving without stopping because we had other cars behind.
Since then I always believe in UFOs but never had any other experience until yesterday and today.
[SIGHTING UPDATE: Since the witness's sighting, more footage has been recorded and can be viewed here. A slideshow of new pictures taken can also be viewed here.]
[EDITOR'S NOTE: Whilst the witness was downloading the pictures from their telephone, this anomalous image below was found in amongst the collection. This photograph is taken sometime in 2005 in Caracas, Venezuela.]
The snapshot taken is certainly very bizarre and we welcome discussion of this article.
