Location of Sighting: Burlington, Ontario, Canada
Date of Sighting: December 13, 2020
Time of Sighting: 7:16 AM EST
Description: I looked up the morning sky and there were four green lights in a square shape. It could be nothing , but is worth reporting.
Note: The green square in the photo could be a reflection from ground lights. However, if the witness actually saw the square, this explanation would not suffice. This question was posed to the witness, but no response has been received.

If you put a dot in the exact center of the photo and then draw a line between the 4 lights in the sky and the bright light on the light pole> the line drawn will pass through the dot in the center and you will find a +/- equal distance between the light on the pole to the dot in the middle and the same +/- equal distance between the 4 lights in the sky and the dot in the middle. The lights in the sky are in the correct position for a lens flare reflection of the bright light on the pole. Get the witness to tell you the street location of the light pole to check on Google Earth. I predict you will see 4 lights on the pole matching light pattern in the sky. Individual pole lights not seen due to over exposure. The 4 light pattern is consistent with 4 light patterns on some parking lot light poles. The green color is probably a chromatic aberration. The light pattern could also be a reflection on a car windshield if shot inside a car?

Thanks for your comments and analysis. I was pretty sure that it was a lens flare. The witness seemed to indicate that he saw the object, but I believe he found it in the photo.
