On Wednesday, July 15, I received the following e-mail from a Sudbury resident:

"I have several photos of UFOs that I took a few years ago in the Temagami area and wonder if you'd be interested. Also I've had other sightings, one in BC, another in Alberta in addition to the one in Ontario. If interested, please return email me. Thanks."

On July 22, I received the following photos, accompanied by the description of the events witnessed by Mr. W.

"I was driving from Alberta to southern Ontario via Highway 11 and wanted to photograph some of the white and red pine stands in the Temagami area, so I had my digital camera on the passenger seat, handy for when I saw something I would photograph. I often stop and take photos of scenery or animals.

I was scanning the trees alongside the highway when I noticed up to my left, just above the tree-line, two dark objects. These were dark, sort of greyish in colour and moving slightly faster than my own speed of about 90 kph. I sped up to about 100 kph but the objects were still travelling somewhat faster than that.

I reached over and grabbed the camera, hit the on button and with one hand through the open driver's side window managed to get about four photos in a distance of about 1.5 kilometers. Then these objects crossed the highway ahead of me and went out of view behind the trees.

They were dark in colour and resembled sort of vertical jelly beans,

For clarity, I used Adobe Photoshop and converted them to bas relief. On doing this, I was surprised to discover there were more than two objects."

"This is another photo with a UFO similar to those I sent. This one was taken on the Clearwater River in Alberta. It was more of a dull aluminum colour as opposed to the dark ones I saw in Ontario.

I have no idea if these are seen frequently, but I've heard two other accounts that meet the description.

My daughter was lounging in her back yard in Cambridge, Ontario, when a flight of hot air balloons passed over. She saw another object following the balloons at a leisurely pace and her description matched these. She said she tried to draw the attention of balloon occupants to the object but they didn't seem to understand.

Another instance was related by the wife of a friend in Prince Rupert, BC. She is a post office employee and told me she and two co-workers went to the rear loading dock of the post office for a smoke break when they noticed an object of the same description as those near Temagami hovering over Prince Rupert harbour. It remained stationery during their break, but was gone when she checked a half-hour later.

The object in this picture is at the upper right of the frame."
