Was digging through some old snaps and found these, funny goings on along the Kaikoura Coast 18 years ago, lucky I was there with my camera eh? B)

They said this was the light from Venus bouncing of marsh gas...

Umm, this one was, well, a new way for Farmers to take the cows to milking..

This is another perspective on the light from Venus on the marsh gas....

And heres a snap of a Bristol Freighter flying overhead, that marsh gas seemed to follow it around the sky before both disappeared...weird :blink:

Lol- very topical Jon ;)

What UFO model is that, or is it just a clever bit of photoshop-ing?

Its the AlienUFO by George Philip Birney, got it from Flightsim.com along with a few others. I added some more lights, and added the 'marsh gas' :D effects

My Favourite as well Jon. Dunno if it would count as military, its a rescue craft, but, you never know. My Klingon Bird of Prey (and a lot of other space ships i have) would definately count as military !!!
Hmmmm, might have to go for a serious look through my VERY LARGE space ship and Sci-Fi hanger............................. ;)

As well as TB-2, i had another favourite as well. Do you remember this one Jon ??
The M.B.A. Mk-9 Eagle. If i remember rightly, it was quite capable of looking after itself armament -wise.................
