In the early hours of Saturday (around 2:45) I was on my lunch break outside having a cigarette. Looking North West over the Solway Firth a colleague and I observed a large bright glowing cloud over the horizon.
It appeared to be illuminated from behind and whatever was lighting it up was also lighting up the whole sky around it. Other clouds around the bright one remained dark.
My colleague pointed out it could be the sun rising but it was too early and in the wrong area, i.e not in the East.
When I was going back inside I put it down to the moon rising behind the cloud, however I made a point of going out the next night at the same time and there was no sign of the moon or anything else emitting any light in the sky.
Not really a UFO sighting but strange all the same. Maybe the military were testing something Scotland side? Any ideas?
I took a picture on my cell phone but it didnt come out very well. I will include it all the same (please click these words). It was much brighter "in the flesh."
Thanks for reading
