The 3rd photo posted (on the bottom) on the link above - the ridge in the backgroud is up above Saratoga,CA - commonly refered to as Bohlman Rd Ridge when I worked that area. There are far too many homes in that photo for this to be taken in Big Basin-even though he did state he was 'up around Big Basin' he's still quite aways away from Big Basin-maybe this was near the Summit at Hwy 9 and Hwy 35. Highway 9 is referred to as Big Basin Wy - but based on the sun-angle - this is about 1-2pm..and definetly in the Highway 9/Sanborn Rd area.. The view is looking east - and I'd guess the photo was taken either on private property( there are hundreds of homes up in this area - many private roads in this area off highway 9)- maybe 4-5 miles west as the crow flies from Bohlman Rd off of Highway 9 -another landmark location is this photo had to be taken east of the Camp Swig area- looking back towards Saratoga,CA........
This area is very wooded, and some areas are more open, but to get a photo of the Bohlman Ridge from the vantage point taken, would lend me to believe it was taken on private property with a view of course, which means the photographer was very lucky to grab a photo of the alleged craft - or it offered an opportunity to take photos from the deck of a view home......? of course I am stating I don't believe this is an off planet UFO - I lean to Robotics and RC(remote control) combined. Also, Sanborn Park is in the area but I feel the angle is off for a photo from there,(too close) though flowers would be plentiful in that area in the park, based on his article. But, anything west of Sanborn park - there really isn't too many vantage points to get Bohlman Ridge in the background from public roadways-everything else are private roads..
I've been on every road and private driveway in this whole area, many many times- and this doesn't strike me as an area where a daylight sighting like this would happen, because 1) the scale of the whole photo sighting - trees, shadows, proximity to the photographer - Hmmmm...This isn't an area where one would expect to see such an interesting craft - because trees would normally block the view - people wouldn't see it - you'd have to be out sitting on the deck with a camera...and 2) the whole color of the object looks shaded-doesn't look right.
I've seen many remote controlled wings and gliders that don't make a sound at RC Flying clubs.....to settle this, the photographer should take the photos again and post wider field of view pictures as to where he was - and then send them to ALL major news outlets and website - and offer to be interviewed for authenticity.
