An oval/disc hovered over Death ValleyI was in Death Valley today taking pictures. While on top of Dante's View, a boy near me said to his mother, "Hey mom, look, a UFO. We should call the US Army." His mother didn't reply and only walked away, back up the hill toward the parking lot. The boy watched for a few seconds and then walked away as well. I started taking pictures with my film camera and then switched to my digital camera.The UFO was in the distance, but definitely over the valley itself. Dante's View is almost directly across from Telescope Peak and looks directly down on Badwater Basin. The object's distance from me was hard to gauge as the valley stretches across for miles and perspective can already be difficult. The UFO was a black oval to my naked eye and hovered around. It came from the south moving northward. It made several circular motions while I took the pictures. Before I could take more, the UFO began to descend slowly back toward the south. I lost sight of it when a rock outcropping got in my way. I quickly jogged around the rocks so I could see the rest of the descent (this took 10-15 seconds), but it had vanished from sight by the time I got around. I'm not sure where it went, as it appeared to be hovering roughly over the center of the valley and was not descending fast enough to have gotten out of sight.I'm going to include pictures. I took several, including some zoomed in. In some you can see the foreground and the background. I also have other pictures showing more of the foreground and background within ten minutes of the incident.Upon review of the photos, it is clearly an oval shape. However, in one photo the oval appears to be tilted and there is clearly a lighter color (white or gray) on a side of it (it appears to be the top to me).I plan on having my film developed tomorrow to see what was captured there.
