Summary/Description: I saw a remarkable, bright light, I thought it was a star, but when I looked carefully, I saw it was very low, too bright to be a star and very clear. I got the camera and started to record, when I zoomed the camera I could see the lights circling around an object and turning. I kept recording but it was very cloudy and sometimes the clouds prevented it to be seen, I waited till it came back and went on recording, when i was tired, I left recording. it was still there, when a big piece of cloud closed it, 5 minutes after I stopped the camera, I decided not to go on. 10, 15 minutes later when I checked it was gone.
