 To the naked eye, Tommy Woodard's digital photo appears to be nothing more than a beautiful photo of trees in Provo Canyon. But zoom in, he says, and the purple glow of the saucer hovering at an angle above the tree line begins to take shape. 

22-year-old Woodard, a photographer from the Film Commission of the State of Utah, took the picture, which, in his opinion, is an unidentified flying object. 

On Tuesday, he was in the canyon shooting freeze-frames for a possible filming location, and on the way out, he started taking pictures for himself. Then he saw nothing unusual in his photo. But later, when he noticed a black spot in the frame, he zoomed in.

"The closer I got, the more impressed I was," he said.

Summary:    To the naked eye, Tommy Woodard’s digital photograph appears to be nothing more than a pretty picture of trees in Provo Canyon. But zoom in, he says, and the purple glow of a saucer hovering at an angle above the tree line starts to take shape. Woodard, 22, a photo librarian with the Utah Film Commission, took the photo that he believes represents an unidentified flying object. He was in the canyon Tuesday shooting still pictures for a possible film location, and began taking pictures for himself on his way out. At the time, he didn’t see anything out of the ordinary in his photograph. But later, after noticing a black speck in the frame, he zoomed in and “the closer I got, the more impressed I got by it,” he said.
