New Mexico - 05-03-10

I watched the late news and saw the weather report 5-3-10, the following day was going to be windy, so I had to go outside to move my Bonsai trees to a location that they wouldn’t be damaged by the wind.

When I went outside to do so, just before 11 pm, I looked up at the night sky and noticed an object to the west of my house hovering and changing color, I thought it strange, and thought I would run inside my house and grab my camera with my long 400mm - 800mm lens and my tripod to view this object better.

I ran back outside and set up my camera, the object remained in the same place for some 7-8 minutes without any movement or sound.

I took 1 photo of it in this position (See photo titled UFO photo #1)., then the object seemed to rotate around, as if it were going to move in another direction, I took 1 more photo (see photo titled: UFO turned #2) , as I backed off my camera lens to get a longer/wider view, the object took off south in direction at an alarming speed.

I managed to snap the last photo as it left (see photo titled: UFO leaving). These photos were long exposures because of the low light conditions which saturated the colors more than normal, but they are surprisingly clear, and you can see distant stars in the backgrounds with NO motion blur.

I Live 8 miles from an Air Force military installation, so this object could be a Black Ops project , but from the photos and the speed involved in my sighting I can easily say it is like nothing I've ever seen.

It was really a strange night, but also exhilarating.
