Observer
Name Victoria H
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks All I can say it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. It came from the Western sky and literally went right over us or so it seemed over to the eastern sky. It was bright and the colour of fire and it was spooky quiet....I have a video but it's amateur and I was so excited but freaked that I forgot to zoom.I will upload if you will like to see it..
