No one UAP video can be deemed ‘smoking gun’ proof of anything. Best we can do now is over time observe, gather data, and look for patterns, similarities and differences with other sightings.
A friend of mine and I were at a beautiful urban park in East Hollywood. It was a clear day with cobalt blue skies, and I was very happy to finally get out and soak up the sun and calming vibes of the park. I had a view of the hills, the Hollywood sign, and the blank slate of the sky above me. No planes spraying streams of gunk today thank God.
I looked down at the blanket I was lounging on, then took in a quick view of the lawn and the occasional groups here and there. Not more than about thirty seconds had passed when I looked up again to take in another view of the mesmerizing blue, but now saw a white-yellowish object had suddenly appeared in the middle of that very same blank space. It was moving very slowly southward against the southeasterly wind.
Hollywood, Los Angeles, and Southern California in general are UFO-UAP hotspots, so whenever I found myself witnessing something anomalous, I would pull out my phone or a camera and start filming, regardless, even if I thought it might possibly be something mundane.
I pulled out my phone and started filming the best I could in the direction of the object, constantly checking back and forth from my 3d view to the view in the viewfinder. There was a tree off to my right, so I tried to keep it in frame for perspective. Other than that, I couldn’t make out the object in the viewfinder and had to continue approximating, hoping I had the object clearly in the shot.
It was really putting on a show. As I observed the 3d real time view, the object hovered in place for several minutes, and I noticed it was changing shape. It started out as a spherical shape, but then morphed into a line, a hook, a bow, a triangle, and then a closed circle. I wasn’t able to get in close without the image blurring out, so I wasn’t able to catch the triangle and circle on film. I’m not a great artist by any stretch, but below are a couple of very rough sketches showing what they looked like.

I did everything I could to get my phone to zoom in for a closer view, but when filming the sky with a phone, unless the object is real bright, it’s difficult to deploy the zoom without the lens losing focus.

I kept trying regardless, often having to reset to the default view to make sure I was in focus. I found that while filming with a phone, having a tree or other object in frame helps. If that tree or cloud is in focus, the object usually is as well.
But there was so much going on. My pulse quickened, I felt giddy and excited, and my sense of time suddenly felt different. Plus it was a little after midday, so the lighting put a bit of a glare on the viewfinder (Not within the viewfinder. There was no lens flare) making it very hard to see what I was doing.

After failing to zoom in several times, I finally was able to get close enough to see more than just a point of light. The closeups later revealed that the shape changes I witnessed were indeed, not my imagination nor the effects of temperature inversions on swamp gas reflecting off of Venus.

This was a long sighting. We watched the object for a total of about FORTY MINUTES, by far the longest sighting I’ve ever witnessed.

| Back to a spherical shape. |
It moved very, very slowly eastward. but only after having hovered in place for several minutes.

| The object starts to elongate again. |
When it appeared as if it was further east of us, over Silverlake, it changed to a line again, oriented vertically, straight up and down. Then a bright red orb appeared a few lengths underneath it. They lingered there together in formation for about a couple of minutes before the red orb disappeared.
Then about a minute later, a white orb appeared under the ‘line’, but this time much closer. I managed to get it on film, even if it IS another much hated “blurry image”. That still is below.

In another few minutes, it disappeared from view. Ultimately I was only able to get the camera phone to zoom in clearly for about 8 seconds or so. I would have loved to have gotten much more, but what I captured at least shows some of the shape changing I described.
This was in no way a ‘birthday’ balloon, or balloon of any kind. Yes, of course people DO see an occasional balloon in the skies here in LA, but they move in a very different way than orbs, and never are observed over the course of a 40 minute time period while they sprout other objects from itself as it changes shape.
Both my friend and I commented about the object for the rest of the day, but didn’t necessarily agree on what we saw. I’ve had experience filming several orbs while living in this hotspot, and even though I didn’t know WHAT they were, I knew they were actual objects. My friend however claimed…get this, that it was a ‘reflection’ from the ocean on the sky.
Wha???
I’ve heard of all kinds of explanations for UFOs, but this was by far the MOST creative. I mean, if we were actually out at sea and the sun was shining on the water just right, and…
Ummm… Nooooo.
That doesn’t make any sense. Especially considering we were at least 10 miles inland.
And what would reflect on a clear blue sky? A boat light? A luminous whale? A neon manatee? Was the boat out there doing all that reflecting made out of chrome?
That’s a super hot boat. Walk by the Disney Hall in downtown LA on a hot day, and you’d see what I mean.
I tried to explain to him how impossible that was, but he adamantly repeated himself a few times on the way home. I was excited to see what the closeup looked like in the editor, and thought this would be a great first entry on my Substack blog about experiencing UFO sightings. So I told him next time we talked, it would be cool to see if he at least recalled seeing what I did.
A couple of days later we talked briefly, and I started to ask him what he remembered about the sighting.
He abruptly said, “I don’t believe in UFOs.”
“Well, er…..we just saw one.”
“I don’t believe in UFOs.”
I immediately dropped it and just changed the subject. My intent is never to force this on anyone. I knew what he meant. He meant he didn’t believe in alien or extraterrestrials. An orb UFO can be many things…not necessarily extraterrestrial, but by that point I didn’t want to make him any more uncomfortable than he already was.
If he wanted to believe he saw a reflection of the sky from the ocean, that’s his choice. I’m just still looking for that boat.
