On December 12, I was just closing myself up for the night, at 18:37, when I noticed a stationary red light in the sky in the direction of Malaga.
At first I thought it was a helicopter or airplane on a direct line over me, and therefore appearing stationary. However, there was no noise, and the object did not get any closer.
I watched as the red light pulsed and dimmed a few times, and appeared to go out and then re-light and began to move in a very irregular manner, not in keeping with normal aircraft of the Costa del Sol.
I raced for the binoculars and as I went on to the balcony I saw that there were two objects. Through the binoculars they looked like the quick Photoshop illustration supplied.
Colors are more or less exact being at twilight. I am a lapsed astronomer, so I know that there should be no astronomical bodies in this area of this color.
Unfortunately the light was sufficiently dim as to not enable me to use the camera (I am a photographer by training), and a 300mm lens would not have given me the magnification of the binoculars.
