I'm not yet sure about publicly sharing my images, I believe I really have seen and watched and observed this one object for over 30 minutes. I was house sitting in West Vancouver, and at 11:30pm i headed out for an evening smoke before bed and noticed a beautiful moon and with my Galaxy Ultra S21 with its 100X space zoom, its always fun trying to see how good a moon picture I can take by hand without a tripod. I got some decent moon pictures, then after a few photos of the moon ( a game of trying to hold the phone steady enough and try to tap the moon's image to focus without "letting the moon whisk away from the preview screen" - I'm getting better at it but it will be better with a tripod. I was on my friends front walkway and facing roughly southeast maybe a bit more south than south east, hard for me to recall how high in the sky it looked but i really can't tell, it could be above or below typical aviation altitudes - I may lean towards higher up maybe even above 30000 FT i just don't know how large it would be up close so tough to estimate its distance. At first blue and white flashes is what caught my eye, i proceeded to look at it for 30 minutes trying my best to take pictures - at first my motion photo feature was not enabled so they are not the greatest stills, but after looking at them briefly i noticed motion photo was off so i turned it on and continued for about 25 minutes to take SEVERAL images with motion photo on ... and then tried to zoom a bit, i think i managed a 10X zoom image, i'm not recalling exactly, however i know that i would not have tried 100x zoom, the large moon was hard enough to keep in the viewer on my screen so the way way smaller blue and white flickering would be hard to focus on ... the results are incredible, I have my originals but i also converted the motion photos to mp4 then with a video to still images video proc app i used that to create multiple photos of some of the motion images, and not noticeable to my eye at the time, i now realize with all these stills generated by my 3 second lead up video clips, there is also audio in there. I'm a highly sensitive person, I absolutely felt I was indeed watching something MAYBE AND PROBABLY not of this world. I kind of believed in ufo's but uncomfortably so and with lots and lots of skepticism, as a computer programmer of long ago, and and I can already see some close people in my life think i am bonkers. Of course I am willing to share my images but this may seem silly but I would be more comfortable to share them in person with anyone who can maybe discuss with me how ownership of images works once shared online ? I honestly think they may be valuable - on the other hand if someone were to dismiss this, i would really need a credible explanation because even though I am quite sure this is at least my second sighting , the first was 15 yrs ago where i witnessed (with 3 other men after working on a cottage in Invermere BC we all saw like (this memory is faded a bit, but as best i can describe it, we were enjoying the clear starry night sky, noticed the space station, etc... and over the mountains at that night maybe around 1030pm or something we all saw like several maybe 4 to7 I'm not sure, orange like spheres coming straight down, almost synchronized like a dance and they stopped then seemed to stay a few seconds only, maybe 10 seconds ... long enough for all of us to perceive ...then they all moved to the right in a linear fashion, again perfectly synchronized to our eyes...then very quickly disappeared... no images that was 15 yrs back, but the skeptic in me may think that was ball lightening but , that might be what someone who did not see them stop and change direction. I know one thing, i have never seen anything and observed it in the night sky for 30 minutes and absolutely still believe it was no typical manmade craft that the general population would be aware of. I sat silent and I don't even remember reviewing all the pictures, i think i believed they would just look like a little dot at first and never be clear enough .... i felt it was a special gift to me and actually was fine with not sharing this information at all. WHAT MADE ME CHANGE MY MIND was a friend of mine sending me a link to the US Congressional hearings from July 26 2023.... some of the footage either they showed during the hearings or that i have seen on (and yes i could relocate that video in my history) a news cast LOOKED EXACTLY EXACTLY EXACTLY like what i saw. My pictures are revealing to me that this one object didn't do much for 30 minutes but then the colors got brighter there seemed to be sudden abrupt movement and then it was gone... I felt something miraculous just happened but i'm not religious, this actually sort of felt confirming because i'm kind of against religions .... i find them airy-fairy ... what i saw .... NOT AIRY FAIRY at all. I can be called any time, i'm semi retired and have lots of free time, Im so motivated now especially since i googled "celebrities' who claim they for sure have seen ufo's - in case my siblings are true fans of those people, given the list of celebrities' ,like Alecia Keys, Miley Cyrus etc etc.they may be inclined to not write me off as mentally ill... im not menally at my best and that is besides the point really, the point is i frequently take pictures at night and have natural wonder and curiosity still alive in me.- interestingly they are mostly singers and musicians I admire (I'm a closeted singer myself) and respect these open minded artists ...allot, I think I read in yahoo news To no surprise who is listed here " Demi Lovato, Kurt Russel, as if they FOR SURE know that ufo's don't happen etc... its condescending. I also know i would be responding to claims like im' making much in the same way as my friends and even siblings ... they are sure i am sure i saw something and that's it, and i know they would feel differently had they been there ! Jean Marc Leblanc 778-990-6955. Another interesting tidbit, this was around the time that spy balloons were shot down, but my event at the time 1130pm to midnight , i also find it VERY interesting that it has been stated in our local "trusty?" news, that an unidentified object was shot over Yukon, i only saw the date Feb 11 2023 ... I wonder was it just a little bit later ? To be honest I actually myself , have more often than not been quite dismissive and a bit condescending toward people with sightings ... some seem easier than others to "ridicule" until finally i really have had a 30 minute personal viewing albeit at a distance but i know this was something. I have kept silent for 7 months out of fear of what others will think of me, but again, it was from footage shown at the hearings and in some of the news clips a friend shared with me, THEN I REMEMBERED oh i know that shape ! I am happy to email a few stills to anyone willing to call me about this please. 778-990-6955
