The person who submitted the video said they were taking photos and time lapse of an incoming storm from a long pier. They said they didn't notice the hovering objects until they checked the footage at home.

Many were quick to dismiss the sighting as a simple case of lens flare. One commenter on the MUFON website said that by using Photoshop, he found that the lights in the sky directly corresponded with the brightest lights on the shoreline.
