The pictures of the towers in Mexico, have been submitted to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) for analysis by experts at the US-based organisation.
However, it has already been said the striking “UFOs” are nothing more than “lens flare” anomalies created inside the camera rather than being anything physical in the real world.
MUFON is the world’s biggest organisation dedicated to UFO and alien research.
The images have just been sent to MUFON for analysis, but were actually taken on May 2, 2006.
In a report to MUFON, the unnamed photographer said: “I took a photograph with a long exposure of the telecommunications towers, about 800 metres away.
“Later seeing the photograph in my house I discovered those lights.”
The photographer said he photographed the towers in similar conditions three weeks later, but nothing strange appeared in the pictures.
MUFON receives hundreds of pictures of suspected UFOs which can readily be explained, and even several hoaxes.
It is often sent pictures with UFOs similar to these which turn out to be lens flares.
Lens flares occur when a camera is pointed at bright sunlight or artificial lights, which then refracts inside the lens, and a reflection of the light then appears on the printed image.
But Scott C Waring, who runs website ufosightingsdaily.com, has concluded these were actually alien craft seeking to intercept data from the telecommunications towers.
He is known for his wild speculative theories on alleged UFO pictures, which are not backed up by any evidence.
In a blog entitled “Four UFO Disks Sucking Data Over Communication Towers In Mexico”, he wrote: “Look closely, you can even see into the clear dome on top of the ships.
“Four glowing green disks were recorded near some telecommunication towers.
“The UFOs were obviously recording data and information being sent around the globe from those towers.”
He went on to suggest that the “lens flares” did not appear in other pictures taken by the man, because the aliens realised they had been seen and an “artificial intelligence” system on board made the craft invisible.
Mr Waring tried to head off any sceptics suggesting the pictures were lens flares.
He added: “All photos are untouched, original. At first, the UFOs might be mistaken for a reflection, but in all actuality, the UFOs were revealed by the powerful lights below, some of which contain infrared lights which can see at night, and it was night, so this caused them to become visible to the camera for a few moments until shield harmonics were altered to hide them.”
Scott Brando is a forensic UFO image investigator who runs the hoax-busting website ufoofinterest.org.
He is known for ridiculing Mr Waring’s theories after confirming what was actually shown in the picture.
He confirmed that in this case what has been mistaken for UFOs are lens flares.
He said: “There have been several pictures with this type of lens flare which have been wrongly identified as UFOs.”
He also tweeted about Mr Waring’s blog, saying: “MUFON case #81662: according to the hoaxer Scott C Waring these lens flares taken in #Mexico over telecommunications towers could be #UFOs.”
