ALSACAT-2012-06-19-HAGUENAU-1
On June 21, 2012, someone who uses to publish under a pseudonym on Dailymotion so-called UFO videos taken here and there in the worldwide, added a video that is actually a still image with different magnifications, ensuring in English that its shows a "must-see giant cigar-shaped UFO" in Haguenau on June 19, 2012 at 2:30 a.m.
There is no other information, and the image does not show at all a giant cigar-shaped UFO.

Almost everyone knows that when taking pictures of moving light sources with a long exposure, instead of point sources, one obtains "trails" corresponding to the displacement of the light sources during exposure time. Almost everyone has seen pictures like this one:
|
These are cars, with a very long exposure time.
In the case we deal with, we have the flashing lights of an airplane or a helicopter, who had time to blink several times during the probable few seconds of exposure time.
It would have been sufficient that the photographer published his original images instead of poor versions converted to a video do demonstrate it surely. But these original photos are not disclosed...
Note that the apparent geometric irregularities and imperfect alignment of the "dots" correspond to the combination of the different flashing intervals of the three lights and the shaky camera during shooting.
The photographer must have seen what was there with his own eyes, something that is obviously not like on the photos but clearly an airplane. It is therefore likely that there was an intent to fool the viewers.

Above: another pseudo-UFO of the same kind that made a "buzz" as "a UFO" in the English tabloids before they understood what it really was.
Photo artefact, plane.
