An eyewitness recorded several purple balls that accidentally flew past the window of the plane.

The witness states: 

I was flying out of Charlotte, North Carolina, on December 11, 2020 at 17: 07 from a business trip. We were in the air for a few minutes, and I noticed a beautiful sunset over the city and decided to take a picture of it. 

I was looking at the city below and just took a few shots, zooming in and out to get the best shot of the city and sunset together. I don't think I was paying attention to anything but the sunset and the city. 

So it was just now (February 11, 2021), looking through my photos in search of something else, I came across photos of strange objects in several pictures I took. In one of the pictures, I noticed dim purple crescents. 

I thought it was just lens flare or something, nothing to worry about. I kept going through the other photos, I could see the color and objects changing places and becoming more solid. It seems that light patterns have formed around the middle of the round objects, which have now turned into 3 separate circles - 1 large and 2 small. 

From the first photo, they went from pale, almost crescent-shaped, to the last photo, where they were very solid, bright purple. I also noticed that something was reflecting a glow above and below all three objects, but I can't make out what those objects were. 

I'm not saying it's a UFO, to be honest, I don't know what it is. But I felt it was worth sending you to see what the pictures show. A few people have looked at them to get their opinions, and they are as confused as I am. I didn't use the flash to take the pictures, there were no similar lights from the plane, and I didn't notice them when I took the pictures. 

As you will see, when I zoomed in, you couldn't see the objects, they were only visible when I was zoomed out. This leads to the conclusion that they were above a certain point of view, and this was not a reflection of the camera, otherwise it would have been seen in other photos. 

Even in the first photo, it seems that they were closer to the wing of the plane, and in the other photos, we either moved away from them, or vice versa. But it is obvious that the location, distance, shape, transparency, brightness, and number of objects have changed. 

It was like at some point the smaller one turned into a 2. I include all the photos taken at that time, just to show the difference in the placement of objects combined with the plane. 

Please let me know what these things are. It would be appreciated!

Eyewitness recorded several purple orbs flying past the plane window by accident. The UFOs are all separate, but flying in a pattern as if they work together as one. I don't think this is a lens flare or light reflection off the window. Though my years of reporting UFOs, the one most common time UFOs are seen is during sunset, probably because more people looking at the sky at that time to see the sunset itself. But I also think the suns rays at a low point can actually shine up from below the UFO illumination it, even if its cloaked, so some UFOs are visible for a few seconds to a few minutes during sunset. That is what happened here.

Eyewitness states: I was flying out of Charlotte, N.C. on Dec 11, 2020, @ 5:07 pm from a business trip. We had been in the air for a few mins, and I noticed a beautiful sunset over the city, so I decided to take pictures of it. I was looking at the city below, and just snapped off a few pictures zooming in and out to get a better shot of the city and sunset together. I wasn't really paying attention to anything but getting both the sunset and city in the picture, I guess. It wasn't till now (Feb 11th, 2021), while going through my pictures looking for something else I came across the photos of the odd objects in a few pictures I had taken. I noticed faint purple-colored crescent moons in one of the pictures. I figured it was just lens flare or something else, no big deal. As I continued to look through the other photos, I could see the color and objects change place and were becoming more solid. There appeared to be light patterns forming around the middle of the circular objects that had now morphed into 3 separate circles- 1 big and 2 small. From the first photo, they had gone from pale in color, almost like half-moon looking, to the last picture, where they were very solid, bright purple color. I also noticed there was something reflecting the glow above and below all 3 objects, but I can't make out what they were. I am not saying these are UFO's, frankly, I don't know what they are. But, I felt it was worth sending in for you to review what is in the pictures. I have had a few people look at them to get their opinion, and they are baffled as I am. I didn't use a flash to take the pictures, there wasn't any type of purple lights coming off the plane, and I didn't really notice them when I was taking the pictures. As you will be able to tell, when I zoomed in, you couldn't see the objects, it's only when I was zoomed out, were visible. That leads to the conclusion they were above a certain vantage point, and it wasn't a reflection from the camera, otherwise, it would have been noted in the other photos. Even in the first photo, it looks like they were closer to the plane wing, and in other photos either we had moved away from them, or vice versa. But it's obvious there was a change in location, distance, shape, transparency, brightness, and the # of objects. It was like the smaller one had morphed into 2 at one point. I am including all the photos I took at that time, just to show the difference in placement of the objects in conjunction with the plane. Please let me know what these things are. It would be appreciated!
