Early friday evening the 15th sept. 2017 i was observing a rainbow through the window of my hotel room on the 13th floor. as a pro photographer and photojournalist i thought it would make a nice picture. i grabbed my camera and pressed the lens against the window and took the first shot at 70mm. i then changed the focal length to 16mm and took another couple of shots with the camera in the same position. for security reasons the window could not be opened, only tilted. it remained fully closed during this procedure. i didn't notice the two objects at the time i was taking the pictures as i was concentrating on my subject, the rainbow through the eye level view finder. it was only after i returned home and uploaded them to my computer that i saw what i had captured that evening. i don't really know if what i captured was a ufo or just reflections from somewhere. i don't think they were reflections from the glazing as i had the camera lens pressed hard against the glass. i have attached the raw image files that contain all the info you may need including a time stamp for each image, my location at the time was the marriott world congress hotel, 53113 bonn, germany
