Sky watcher Sam Green thought he’d struck gold when he captured this incredible image of what looks like meteors speeding towards Earth.
The 27-year-old builder, from Countesthorpe, was doing a job for his boss in Kibworth when he spotted mysterious goings on high in the clear, blue sky.
He said: “Where we were is on a flight path and you often get planes and helicopters flying over from Leicester Airport
, which are interesting to look at and my camera is never far away from me.
“There was this brilliant, clear blue sky on Thursday and it was about 2pm when I happened to look up and noticed these two peculiar objects with vapour trails.
“ They were close together and looked like they were falling straight down.
“When I looked away and looked back they were gone. I thought ‘that’s strange’.
“But about half an hour later, I looked again and saw four of them, so I thought ‘right, I’m going to take a picture’ and grabbed my camera.”
Sam managed to take three shots of the unidentified flying objects.
