Witness account

Narrative

Took this photo in Tokyo at 6:46 PM on August 23rd. Do you guys think this is UAP or lens flare? It has no effects on it. Buddy of mine took a photo within a minute of mine and those 3 spots are not in his. Although it may not have been taken at the exact same angle. It looks like those spots might mirror the 3 lights on the right side of the photo. submitted by /u/Grandleveler33
