Edinburgh (UK/Scotland) · United Kingdom

I was on a bus heading to the airport around 9am local time in Edinburgh UK. As a tourist, I was taking tons of photos from my seat on the bus. As we passed by the castle on Princes Street I took last minute photos of the "castle on the hill". The lights in the air were not there and just seconds as the bus went by there were suddenly light figures in my photos that I thought were drones. So I dismissed it. I showed a co worker my photos and he was quick to point out that it was not a drone as there was a second identical set of lights just behind the castle and based on location it looked very large in comparison to the building. I leave it to you to make your own decision about the photos I am submitting as I am now intrigued. Possible reflection off glass?? PD
