Skier resting with his family in the ski resort of Alta, located in Utah, about 3 o'clock in the afternoon of 3 March 2016 made a terrific picture of two spherical UFOs.

Sunny morning on the ski trip, the campers noticed that the weather began to deteriorate rapidly, the sky was covered with dark clouds, a strong wind picked up and it was snowing. The skiers returned to the Parking lot to his car, and suddenly, through a break in the clouds shined by the sun. They raised their heads to the sky and saw in the resulting window, among the clouds flashed bright blue glow.

"I took out his mobile phone Galaxy s6 to photograph it, thinking that the glare of the sun in the clouds. Then enlarged the image and saw a pair of identical blue balls of light with bright patches", - the eyewitness reported.

Two large luminous object surrounded by a bright blue glow was clearly visible against the gray clouds. They stayed in sight for about 45 minutes, until the gap in the clouds had not closed completely. According to the skier, a storm front was moving from West to East, with wind gusts up to 80 km/h, but these objects did not seem to depend on the wind and remained perfectly motionless.

"I am an avid Amateur astronomer and astrologer. I have observed many unusual phenomena in the sky, but I've never seen," a delighted witness added that after returning home he showed unusual objects to his eldest son, after which he had long convinced him to send pictures to MUFON.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Re-reflections in lens lenses from a strong light source

The lens consists of a set of lenses (in some lenses - of mirrors), designed for mutual compensation of aberrations and assembled into a single system.

From the contour light (bright light sources behind the subject or next to it), caught in the frame or located outside the frame, parasitic reflections from the internal elements of the lens are formed, called glare (or in slang "hares").

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

This appearance is characteristic of glare. In this case, probably, the cloud divided the Sun into two light sources, therefore, turned out to highlight exactly this.
