Friday 08/25/05 7:45 PM I was waiting for the light to change on 8th Ave and 32nd Street I noticed that there was something in the skies to the west.
I turned to look at what looked like a dark swirling black hole hovering in the clouds over New Jersey.
The light changed and people hurried by me as I tried to get a better look at what at first I thought was a opening in to a dark area of the clouds.
It had a kind of a distortion whirling about its edges about it that seemed to make it impossible to get into focus.
As I stood there it started to move silently to the North.
Only when it started to move did it seem that I could make out its shape.
At times it looked like it was two flat rectangular objects travelling side by side at other it seemed to be a series of black triangles attached to two long rods, because I could at times see the sky through what appeared to be triangular openings in the slabs themselves.
It started to go behind the 34th Street Post Office so I walked back to try and keep it in sight but the shifting field about it made it hard to see what it was I was looking at.
As I watched a helicopter passed between me and the object and the object which was further off seemed to be the same size although it was more distant than was the helicopter.
The object looked to be over the Hudson river or possibly New Jersey.
The thing moved very slowly and very silently but in a straight line.
I made two separate pictures of each thing. The first picture is a poor rendition of the swirling hovering darkness I first saw.
This is of the thing that it the cloud finally became.
The smaller picture is about the size the thing looked to me as I watched it from the corner a cross from Penn Station.
The larger pictures is what I believe the things would have looked like had I been closer.
These things were too big not to have been noticed by others on either side of the Hudson so I am hoping that someone else that saw it (them) will read this and come forth to talk about it.
