Woman, 24, accidentally captures photo of 'strange' blue object in the sky

A Merseyside woman who stopped to take a picture on a night time drive believes she's captured a UFO hovering in the sky on camera.

Last night, at around 10pm, Levi Highcock was out on a drive with her friend when they stopped the car to take a picture of the evening sky in Clockface area of St Helens.

Levi, 24, said she attempted to take a picture of the moon on Snapchat, but due to the lighting decided to take another on her phone camera using the night time mode.

But when she looked closer at the picture, Levi said and her friend were shocked when they spotted something blue in the sky similar to that of a UFO.

Levi told the ECHO: "I was taking a picture on snapchat and I couldn't see anything in the snap so I took a picture with the night mode on my camera and I could see this blue thing in the sky.

"I couldn't see any lights around it or anything, you can just see the blue thing in the sky. I was just taking a picture of the moon while we were out because I thought it looked nice.

"I was just out for a drive with my friend."

Levi said she was initially shocked by what she discovered and later posted the picture to a local Facebook group to see if anyone agreed with what she saw or had spotted it themselves.

She said: "We were just like oh, my god, it does look like a UFO. It does look like a ship, it doesn't look like a plane or a light, it looks like a UFO.

"I sort of believe in them. I'm not a strong believer but I do believe there are aliens out there and stuff like that.
