Unknown Object Shadows Holden Blimp

Received another interesting photo from the land downunder last week on September 29, 2006. One of our regular readers, Tyson Donnelly, sent us before and after photos of a scene showing the Holden blimp. The blimp was flying over a local forest in an area called Terry Hills, which is near Sydney, Austrialia.

Tyson said, "Ok we were taking photos of a Holden blimp that passed over head, which we have plenty of close up of, you can notice in the top left area of the pic. However, after looking back at the pictures we noticed an object off to the right side. two pictures from the same perspective were taken seconds apart, and it is present in one but not the other, Both included..."

The photos were taken on August 20, 2006.

The Blimp

This photo taken only seconds later shows the blimp but not the unknown object on the right.

The Airship is be used exclusively by Holden for marketing purposes and will become a regular feature above Australia’s greatest sporting and cultural events.

Until now Airships and blimps have only been able to screen animation or basic graphic displays. The Holden Airship is the first to use the technology that allows television footage to be broadcast on the Airship screen. We anticipate the response from Australians, who will be the first audience worldwide, will be very favourable”. Source holden.com.

What is it?

I have been having quite a debate with my friends as to what the object is. The object appears to be approximately the same distance as the blimp is from the camera, and the light shining on both objects seems to coming from the same source.

I think it could be an airplane, possibly a 1940-50s vintage propeller powered aircraft. A friend of mine Robert Morningstar believes it could be a bird. What do you think? To see the original photos and closeups click here.
