Duration: 3 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Arlington, TX, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw a small blue light move from a star to the left, then it blinked out.

On March 12, 2014, about 23:21 hours, I was standing outside my home, smoking a cigarette.

I looked to the West and just above my roof line I saw 3 stars in a line, (that I always see early in the night and to the west) but near the lowest star on the horizon out of these 3 stars, there was a small blue light.

I immediately focused in on it, because it was blue and it was moving. I watched this blue light travel from (it almost looked like it was behind the star) the star to the left and at about a 40-45 degree angle towards the ground.

It traveled quickly for a few seconds, then it blinked out, and it was gone. I thought I might have lost sight of it because of the tree branches that are in the way, but after getting a better view of that piece of sky, I could no longer see it.

I took out my iPhone 4S and took a picture of the sky where it was, but unless you turn up the brightness the image is almost all black.

This morning I remarked a copy of that p! icture, this morning. I have used MSPaint to draw the path of the UFO, the tree branches, the roof line, and the brightest stars that were visible with the naked eye.

I will send the remarked picture and the original with this report. Granted this was not a spectacular UFO sighting, but it was strange to me because I live in the flight path of a few airports, DFW International Airport, Love Field, Alliance Airport, and Arlington Municipal Airport. So I am very familiar with Airplanes in the sky and the paths they take over my home, (it's usually from North to South) and this UFO was not taking a normal path that I see other Airplanes take.
