Duration: 15 minutes plus
No of observers: 1

Location: Sarasota, FL, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Triangle bright light, hovering low altitude.

I was walking my dog and I noticed the bright moon in the sky, brighter than usual. When the cloud below the moon moved I realized that the brightness was increased by the shiny object below the moon.

From my angle which was to the right of the moon and object, the object appeared to be a triangle (teepee-shaped) and it had the glow of the moon on it, a bright white light, or it might have had its own light source.

It hovered and it did not move, there were no towers or radio stations in this field of vision so it struct me as something totally foreign. The triangle was much lower than the altitude of a plane. I lost vision of it when the cloud moved and covered it up again. CORRECTED DATE
