Green UFO Photographed Over Historic Norfolk, England Windmill Causes Stir

A green, glowing UFO was photographed over a 19th Century windmill in Norfolk, England recently, causing a little stir in the United Kingdom over whether it was a man-made craft or an alien ship.

Photographer Peter Rye was photographing Denver Mill in Downham Market at night late last month and afterwards discovered the bizarre green object in the sky.

He was taking long-exposure pictures on a tripod of the historic 1853 landmark that is illuminated nightly.

Rye told the British press that he did not hear or see anything unusual while taking the photographs until he went home to King’s Lynn.

The green light was visible on some of his pictures but not all of them indicating that it was not an object on his lens, and it seemed to have traveled from right to left.

The mill is 30 miles from a RAF base, lending speculation it might have been a military craft. Manager of the windmill Lindsay Abel told Daily Mail this week: “It is very strange it has to be said.”

Abel said the structure was used as a navigational tool during World War II.

“The Germans used it in the war when they headed up to the Midlands to bomb,” she said.

“Maybe the UFO looking down saw these strange sails and wondered what the hell it was!”

It’s the reflection of the bright light in the lower part of the photo. The light reflects off the green coated CCD of the camera, onto the glass of the lens and back onto the CCD.

This is a very common problem with digital SLR cameras.
