An eyewitness from the city of Alphen aan den Rijn writes:

I saw a blue patch of light near the moon to the South. I thought someone was shining a spotlight against the clouds. The spot was slowly approaching me. 

Then I saw that something on top of the clouds was letting in light, not from below. From time to time it seemed that something flew in front of the light. 

I walked around the house and saw that the spot on the horizon disappeared behind the trees (see the Video). No sound.

According to ufomeldpunt.nl this lighting is at altitude (RET measuring train)

Original news

ALPHEN AAN DEN RIJN, ZH — Ik zag ter hoogte van de maan in het zuiden een blauwe lichtvlek. Ik dacht dat iemand tegen de wolken aan scheen met een schijnwerper. De vlek kwam langzaam mijn kant op tot boven mij. Ik zag toen dat er iets van boven de wolken het licht erdoor heen scheen, dus niet van onderen. Er leek ook af en toe iets voor het licht langs te gaan. Ik ben om het huis heen gelopen en zag de vlek aan de horizon achter de bomen verdween( zie video). Er was geen geluid te horen.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Light sources on clouds

Lasers, searchlights, car headlights and other light sources of sufficient power can form a column of light in a dusty or foggy atmosphere, various patterns on low clouds, fog or haze. Also, the rays can highlight parts of the cloud, objects or birds, giving them bizarre shapes.

Searchlights can shine with one beam, several. They can be stationary, move, and also form spinning carousels on the clouds, which can change shape and color.

It often seems that the light source is located at the point where the beam hits the cloud, and not vice versa.
