I was at my home and walked outside for some air. I noticed a bright reddish-orange light over a little drive in up the road a bit. At first thought it was a low plane but did not see aircraft strobe lights. I watched it for a bit and saw that it was just hovering and seemed to be spinning. there were yellow light tips on the outer edges of the object. It would pulsate and flash three times, stop and repeat. It reminded me of a beautiful Christmas flashing light. I ran back inside to get my camera and when I got back out was fiddling with the settings, it stopped flashing, got brighter and brighter and then shot straight up at a high rate of speed and was gone. I hated that I couldn't get a pic or video. My smart phone is new and am still learning about it.
