In December 2015, I was sitting on my back porch and noticed a big triangular shaped object in the sky. It had 3 red lights. I tought it was some type of plane at first but the object stayed in one place for approximately 20-30 minutes. I also then thought it was some type of radio tower although I had never saw a tower there before. I decided to try at take pictures of this with my phone. I could not see the objects lights in my phone, but I snapped several pictures anyway. All I could see on the picture was black. After twenty or thirty minutes the object began to move. It lowered slowly behind a line of trees and then it was gone. Ive never saw it there again. I really had not gave it much thought until today when I was scrolling through my pictures on my phone. The pictures I had took that only showed a black screen before now have an object in them. It's hard to explain the pictures but I will try and upload them for you to see.
