Duration: half hour
No of observers: 2

Location: Topanga, CA, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Observed a donut shaped object with multiple lights moving in a circular motion for 20 to 30 minutes.

Was outside on our deck looking at the stars over the ridgeline to the west. Noticed flickering lights in the distance. Thought it might be an airplane but it didn't move for five minutes. Called to my fiance to come look, while I grabed my telescope. Through my telescope noticed a donut shaped object with red, blue, yellow and maybe green lights moving in a quick circular motion. Tried to take a picture with my camera but once I got in focus it disapeared. I'm not the type of person who believes in this stuff, and I can usually come up with an explanation. But I don't know what to say about this. Wondering if someone else saw this object. It should have been seen clearly from Malibu to Ventura over the Pacific Ocean.
