On February 27, 2010 at 1:58 p.m., a witness notices a luminous phenomenon that intrigues him in the direction of the south-southwest. A round glow with rainbow colors as well as another white glow are observed for 2 minutes. No noise is heard. The witness takes photographs. The characteristics of the observation described in the report, as well as the 2 photographs taken by the witness, show no degree of strangeness. They show separated clouds of the cirrus type, well known to meteorologists, in the form of filaments mostly white in color. These clouds have a fibrous appearance and a silky sheen. The "flying objects" described and photographed by the witness correspond to the direction of the sun to the south through the cloud layer, hence the rainbow light of the "second object" corresponding to the visible spectrum of sunlight.
