Formation in western sky, 4 blue lights, San Francisco, Sept 21, 2017 at 20:02pm

I was crossing California street, heading north on Octavia in San Francisco the night of September 21, 2017. I noticed the crescent moon in the western sky and quickly snapped a walking picture as I crossed the street.

I didn't notice anything in the sky at the time I snapped the picture, nor immediately afterwards. Once I finished crossing the street, I noticed this strange object in the sky of my photo, but again, nothing was in the sky. I somehow captured this thing by chance on my phone's camera.

Location is California and Octavia Sts in San Francisco, facing west. Time is 20:02pm.

NUFORC Note:

We suspect a lens flare. PD
