Strange sighting at sunset / Tucson Arizona May 3, 2011
Let me start off by saying that I am not here to prove anything. I just saw some strange things today and felt that I should share. My boyfriend called me from work to look at the sunset. He said there was a "second sun" that I am always joking about. I went outside, and there it was. It was there for quite some time, I had only a camera phone, took 2 pictures, they didn't come out. I was so intrigued that I looked online for anyone else who had possibly taken a picture of the sunset. I found one posted by a girl, I can clearly see the same object in the photo. I will post it in a second as soon as I figure out how, for I am new here. Greetings!

Seriously, fuck off. You apparently didn't read OPs post. They aren't here to prove shit to you.

What did this object look like exactly?

I can see the object (which a lot of people have been photographing, despite shills claiming it's just a lens flare), but what color is it?

Howdy fellow Tucsonan and GLPer :)! I live on the east side and didn't see the sunset this evening =\ I have seen "two suns" here before, though, in September of last year...

[link to www.transview.org] the city cameras allow you to control them, you can point em straight into the sun at sunset.. it's... interesting! meow

Nice OP, I have been watching for this to show up here in Texas soon. My son informs me that early in the morning a few months back their was something similar visable in the skies here.

I don't know what time the photo was taken, but I saw the object at approximately 7pm. It looked like a secondary light source, on it's own. Almost like a hole in the sky. It reminded me of an eclipsed moon, but really bright.

My friend tells me that the 6 planets are aligned and can be viewed by the naked eye at sunrise. Although this was at sunset, probably the same thing.
