NUFORC Sighting 114022

Occurred: 2014-09-27 21:10 Local
Reported: 2014-09-27 18:44 Pacific
Duration: ~5 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Buffalo, NY, USA

Shape: Diamond

Slow-moving diamond-shaped object slowly traverses Southern Buffalo NY sky and winks out.

Live North of Buffalo, went outside for a cigarette, looking South. Saw object moving slowly East to West. Lost it in the trees and it did not reappear in the proper amount of time had its speed been steady. Continued at slower rate of speed once it reappeared and then stopped (hovering?) for 2+ minutes. Lights dimmed and winked out in roughly 2-3 seconds.

Object appeared as 5 lights; in orientation to me they were top/bottom/left/right/center making a diamond shape. Lights were white with an orange-ish tint. Orientation did not change as it moved.

No aura, no trail, no haze.

Sky was completely clear, light pollution was typical but negligible.

Took a picture with cellphone camera but it's garbage.
