Duration: 15 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Portland, OR, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Bright red light NNW sky over Portland OR Photo zoom revealed 3 lights in triangle 2 red 1 green

Bright red light NNW sky approximately 70 degrees above the horizon. With the naked eye it appeared as a single stationary red light, appeared about the size of a light on a low flying aircraft we see in the area, assumed to be the light from an aircraft, possibly a helicopter but it appeared much to high and there was no movement. Decided to try and get a photo, zoomed the camera lens and found it to be three lights in a triangle, two red lights one green. These were self illuminated. Watched for several minutes using the stationary silhouette of a tall fir tree to discern movement, the light appeared stationary. Went in the house to download the photo and then checked 15 minutes later and it was gone. Nothing on the local news, sent photo to local news station weather department, as of 24 hours later no response from them. This was an unusual sighting for me I'm not far from PDX and see a lot of aircraft in the area, never have seen anything like this and ! wouldn't have known it was multiple lights without the camera zoom.
