On Friday night I was driving to my friends house and noticed 5 orange balls in the air just over the tree line roughly 5-8 miles away from me. I stopped my car and took one picture but by the time I could get my phone out 2 of the orange lights had disappeared. There was a bit of a glare from the windshield so I ran up the street to get a better view and took a second picture. By the time I had taken the second the balls had shifted position. I immediately got back in the car and raced to my front ends house which was only about 2 minutes or less away from where I took the pictures. As soon as I got to his house we ran upstairs and got onto his roof and there was nothing to be seen in the direction I saw them in (at this spot we were above the tree line so they would have been more visible). I was unable to see any shape or an exact altitude of the objects but if I had to estimate i would guess they were around 5-6 thousand feet above the ground. Upo! n looking at the pictures later I also noticed a rapidly buzzing gray spec that I could not see in the sky before but showed up on camera when I look at the live picture.
