That explains the ascending row of lights in an equidistant pattern from low left to high right.

Or something like that! :confused:

I will try and explain what you are looking at. The bridge is in a "S" shape and if you look at the lights underneath the right side of the bridge as you go over the top of the bridge it curves to the left and you can continue seeing the lights underneath the right side of the bridge again along with the lights going down the middle. To the left side of the far end of the bridge is a parking lot with florescent blueish green lights that light up the parking lot for a long pier that is parallel to the bridge on the far end. That explanation is probably clear a mud.

I was talking about the lights that are OVER the street lights in the upper third of the sky. The equidistant spacing made me think of the navigation lights on the wing of either a descending or ascending aircraft. Take another look and you'll see what I mean. :)

Yea I see it. That has to be a plain with the green light blinking. I'm impressed that you noticed it! That is a lot of flashes and a long distance to occur in 1/60 of a second.

Not sure a plane could travel all that distance in 1/60th of a second… Could it be a reflection of tarmac lights?

The distance between the green light on the left and the green light on the right is a difference of several miles so the light would have to be blinking like a strobe. I think the only real answer is that it is a UFO and I captured it in my image. LOL

This is one more of the many cars that I photographed this last week in the "Cruisin the Coast" held on the Mississippi gulf Coast that is an annual event each year. If you are interested in seeing more of the old cars you can go HERE and it will take you straight to a gallery on my website with many more pictures that you can look at. When you get to the gallery, if you double click on the tab "Slideshow" in the upper right hand corner of the page it will automatically take you through all the pictures.
