Flying saucer spotted over Portsmouth
A photographer who stopped on a whim to take some pictures at night might have chanced upon a real UFO.
The picture appears to show a mysterious object in the shape of a flying saucer. UFO experts say it could prove the existence of the phenomenon
Hab Rahman, a keen photographer, was stunned to see the image in the background when he looked again at some pictures he had taken at night.
The 28-year-old, from Portsmouth, Hants, was driving home from work through thick fog when he decided to stop and get some snaps of the eerie setting.
He pulled up and went to take the shots from a car park near Commercial Road, Portsmouth, just after midnight.
It was not until he got home and transferred the shots onto his computer that he spotted the mysterious glowing object.
Mr Rahman said: "I didn't spot anything when I took the picture but then later on when I looked a bit closer and zoomed in, there it was.
"I've never really believed in UFOs but this is a bit weird and quite freaky.
"I'm not really sure what to make of it but I can't think what else it could be."

Hilary Porter, from the British Earth and Aerial Mysteries Society (BEAMS), believes this sighting could be the real thing.
She said: "It would be very difficult to fake that photo and the UFO is at a tilt, which is the way they normally fly.
"You don't normally see that sort of UFO over this country, we generally get orange orbs, so the photographer who got this photo has got quite a coup."
The Ministry of Defence would not comment on individual sightings and said they could not check if there were any aircrafts in the vicinity at the time.
An MoD spokesperson said: "The MoD examines reports solely to establish whether UK airspace may have been compromised by hostile or unauthorised military activity.
"Unless there is evidence of a potential threat, there is no attempt to identify the nature of each sighting reported."
