Initial data
An eyewitness from Rijswijk (South Holland) reports that an object in the form of a tick-tock dragee was noticed over A4 Rijswijk. It began to glow, flashed and disappeared.
The eyewitness clarifies:
I was walking in the park with my son and suddenly noticed a white object that did not move after a few minutes it flared up and it is no longer there. See the photo. In the same place, the camera does not detect the object when magnified brighter, but it is quite obvious that it has the shape of a tick-tock.

Hypotheses
Halo
Halo usually appears around the Sun or moon, sometimes around other powerful light sources such as street lights. There are many types of halos, but they are mostly caused by ice crystals in Cirrus clouds at a height of 5-10 km in the upper troposphere. The form of the observed halo depends on the shape and arrangement of crystals. Reflected and refracted by the ice crystals, the light often turns into a spectrum, which makes halo look like a rainbow, but a halo in low light has a low chroma, which is associated with the peculiarities of twilight vision.
Investigation
It is not very clear which object in the photo the eyewitness had in mind. If it is a bright orange spot on a cloud, then most likely it is a halo or a "false sun".
