Can you explain this?

Hy guys,

Last night I had a walk on the Harbour bridge.
I got my camera with me because I was thinking to give some shots to the Opera House. My girlfriend pointed me on an unusual (probably just for me) bright object in the sky. It was showing up in the middle between Rigel and Canopus. The attractive think was the fact that its was blinking in many colours. We observed it from about 9pm to 10pm. It was there for all the time.
I did 2 shots with a 75-300mm zoom lens, however impossible to have a firm image without a tripod.
You can see in any case the range of colours that we saw from it last night.
