Calais, Nord-Pas-de-Calais (France)

Sighted on Monday 27. October 2014

Shape: Unknown | Duration: Undisclosed
Source:

I was on the Cross Channel ferry leaving Calais enroute to Dover. As we left Port i went to the Stern of the Ship to view the Calais Skyline. The Sky was overcast, there was no Moon and the wind had dropped. As we got a bit further out i took out my Smartphone to take some Photos. I stood on a bench so that i could take the Photos over the glass fencing. I took Four Frames from right to left to capture the view. Without checking i put away my Phone and went inside to get a drink. After sitting down with my Coffee i checked what i had Photographed. In the First and Second Frame i thought it was Light reflexion, but then in the Third and Fourth Frames there were Two Glowing Objects, seemingly moving from right to left. I went back outside to check the sky, but nothing could be seen. I then took another Two Photos of the same area and there was no reflexion. Prior to taking the first Four Photos i was taking in the Scene of Calais being lit up and did not view anything unusual with the naked Eye.It seems the Camera picked something up.? My Feelings during the event went from Neutral to Curious to `What is that?. I am Ex-military and a Pilot.
