Argentina: UFO Over Cabra Corra, Salta
By Rafael Franco Sábado


SALTA - On Saturday at around 19:42 hours, Victor Cintioni, 61, a businessman from Salta, photographed a strange object in the sky with his small cellular phone while he fished from a catamaran at the Cabra Corral reservoir. The image shows a glowing disk surrounded by an intense red halo, which he classified as a UFO.

"The object appeared from the sector to the west of the water's surface, over the mountains of the Cachi region," said Cintioni.

His sighting coincided with a group of Spanish and Argentinean tourists publicly reporting that on that same day and nearly at the same time, a similar object had been reported on the outskirts of Cachi.

"On Saturday I was fishing aboard El Delfín, my friend Pablo's catamaran. The fish weren't biting and the sunset was spectacular, so I started to photograph the landscape. I asked the helmsman to take a shot with my cellphone while I arranged the fishing rods. Since Pablo isn't very knowledegable about this sort of technology, he took a few pictures and returned the cellphone for me. I immediately checked the photos he'd taken and the ones I'd taken to see how they'd come out. You can imagine my surprise when that strange image appeared, one that we had not noticed directly. In the end we agreed that it was a reflection, because only a tiny red dot could be seen on the phone's screen."

Cintioni told El Tribuno: "Imagine my surprise when I downloaded the photos to a computer and saw the image with greater clarity. The strange object became visible, with all the characteristics of a UFO. This is my first experience of the sort," he explained.

"I was going to leave it at that, but when I saw the story of the Spanish tourists in Cachi, describing the apparition nearly at the same time at which I took my photo, I told myself that it was too much of a coincidence. And setting aside my incredulity and skepticism, I made my discovery known."

He added: "This was not an easy decision to make, as I was afraid that people would think I was a nut or a teller of tall tales. I want to make it clear that there is neither trickery nor deceit here. This is how things happened. I'm an adult, serious person, and incapable of telling stories for the hell of it."

It should be noted that Cintoni's evidence consisted of photographs printed on paper and the original digital file taken by the cellphone, a normal device lacking high definition or high technology."
