Location: Kelowna (Canada), BC, Canada

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Bright light slowly descending near Bear Creek - Kelowna, BC, Canada.

On January 11th, 2009, I was at home and watched a bright light (no discernible object) slowly descend behind the mountain near Bear Creek Provincial Park, near Okanagan Lake.

I watched the light for approximately three minutes. The location was to the SW of my home and I took three, 30 second exposures with my camera.

At the time it looked like a flare as it was very brigh and did not diminish in size. From my perspective it appeared to be moving downward on a slight angle.

I did send the photo’s to a local news agency for follow up but never received a reply.
