Are you also familiar with how an out of focus light appears on different cameras?

I am a professional video-editor, I am familiar with aperture techniques, lens flares and editing tricks. I have never seen anything like this before. Some of the artifacts in the close-zoom footage are definitely camera-induced (small pixelations) as well as the hard edge that the object has.
It's also the result of the light being out of focus, as the darker top.
Also the stationary dark spot residing in the bottom of the object is quite odd.
Because an our of focus light will look the same when seen through another camera with the same type of lens.
Why is there multiple video sourcing the exact same thing?
They can be observant and stupid, although I don't mean that's what happened in this case. People's reactions are the result of their personality, so we cannot really know why they reacted like they did. Maybe they had a predisposition to be awed by something like this.
People are observant, not stupid. Why would these [multiple] people be awing over something so simple?

I believe the second video should be added to the original post. It looks like most of the people here have not watched it. The woman filming clearly said several times that there were a few of these things, at least 4. Well, it could also be one, which disappeared and reappeared again. Anyway, the second video was obviously filmed by a different group of people which rules out streetlights, grapes, etc.

Plasma Beings

The video in the OP is of a Plasma Being, they appear in the form of these plasma ships which are similar to what lava looks like, drunvalo describes them as friendly and peaceful beings living inside the earth.
Drunvalo says these beings lived on the surface of earth before us.
Carlos Diaz of Mexico took pictures of these plasma ships first time in 1991. Drunvalo also says he has visited their underground cities, and they have no particular physical form, but they can appear in human form.edit on 12/3/11 by vinay86 because: someday we will meet them.

Well until we find out more info, that video could be the best case for a truly unexplained piece of footage. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Chadwickus has already rightly spotted what it is, I'll expand on it a little..
What it is......A streetlight with moths or something flying around it.
What are the swirls......Its a combination of branches between the light and the camera being brought into the image by the digital zoom artifacts. Its a small point of light being overzoomed which causes those odd patterns.
What its not...A Planet, clouds or a star and certainly NOT an alien craft...
Sorry, its a very very common effect seen on many many video's..
EDIT: The same effect can be seen partially in the video in this thread
www.abovetopsecret.com...
The item isn't a round pulsating blue ball as you will see when the guy pulls back the focus so you can see the buildings, only then do you see its a small whiteish light that's blinking and probably a star with some atmospheric goings on causing that twinkling look.
Again, once an item is digitally over zoomed out of focus you start to get diamond shapes, a look like the top half is darker and many other FALSE image artifacts.edit on 12-3-2011 by Mclaneinc because: (no reason given)

The guy above me is right. It is a false image artifact of over zooming...
It really baffles me how many of you come here with almost little to no knowledge, video manipulation skills, and/or experience recording footage (not speaking to you directly).
It would help some of you to maybe try using a video recorder once in a while. I am pretty sure the same guywho made the video has had exerience with the guy on youtube who overzooms and calls diamond shaped overzooms "angels of light".
Or the people on youtube who truly believe orbs, that can only be seen "when taken with a camera" are spirit orbs. Again, not calling anyone out, just saying, it helps to *Think* before you *act*edit on 12-3-2011 by mr10k because: (no reason given)

Imagination may be your worst enemy.
That shape is characteristic of an out of focus light, and changes according to the lens used on the camera. This is what an out of focus light looks when using a Canon MV730i.
The moving lines that we see on the object are probably in front of it, like out of focus tree branches, they do not look like they go around the shape, they look only projected on the object, not on its surface.
But whatever it was it was really there, we can see the clouds illuminated by it.

The odd thing is the U.F.O dissapears when a military plane appears.
This to me suggests a sentience behind the U.F.O ie it has the sentience to dissapear when a hostile craft appears.
Looks like plasma to me, or maybe holographics.

A grape? A flare? A street light? Clouds infront of it? Seriously, the people who try and debunk stuff have a greater imagination than those who believe.
A GRAPE???????? Just go away.
In my first post I said that the light was really there and illuminated the clouds.

What I'm stabbing at (and what you failed to recognize) is where the light source (we can agree its a light source) is at relative to the ground/horizon. Its obvious that it is high(er) in both videos. Thus impossible to be a street light.
I didn't said anything like that. Could you please tell me what did I said that you interpreted that way? Thanks in advance.
Your argument that the people filming are truly ignorant enough to speculate that this is a common light source is weak at the most.
I hadn't the time to watch that video, I will watch it tomorrow, it's getting late here in Portugal.

"Why is there multiple video sourcing the exact same thing? "
Because an our of focus light will look the same when seen through another camera with the same type of lens.

Interesting clip.
