1967 – calgary, Alberta, Canada. 3 Jul expert Allen Hynek stated: "... this is the best daylight shot I've seen." That says it all!

Warren Smith and two of his friends were returning from a two-day visit, when he saw the object. Smith grabbed a camera and took two pictures.

_____________________________________

The salesman (Warren Smith) and two companions one of whom is 16-year-old boy saw a strange object. Someone noticed a disc-shaped object moving in the air above tall evergreen plants.

The seller has prepared his camera and photographed a UFO. The object was described as "brilliant, approximately 25 feet (7.5 m) in diameter". He had a "silver color".

One particularly interesting statement made by the RAF, was the fact that the object is a UFO in the pictures "had a toroidal shape. Only the blurred image (plate 62) is tilted upward toward the observer, and the light shining is not quite centered on the dark disk can be interpreted as the backlight, not the center hole".

Summary: A salesman (Warren Smith) and two companions, one a 16 y/o boy. Someone spotted a disc-shaped object moving through the air above the tall evergreens. The salesman readied his camera and snapped photographs of the UFO. The object was described as being “shiny, and approximately 25-feet in diameter.” It had a “silvery hone to it.” One particularly interesting assertion that was made by the RAF was that the UFO object in the photograph “had a toroidal shape. Only the blurred image (plate 62) is pitched up towards the observers, and a light shone not quite centered in the dark disk can be interpreted as a highlight, as opposed to a central hole.”
