Thanks @"BIAD" and @"Ninurta". I appreciate your help with the photo.  I'm sure that's the best we're going to get with such a low quality photo.

You're welcome. It does seem to be a strange anomaly if there is no town or industrial plant the beam could be coming from. Even that would not explain the lights within the beam. Folks could say "eh, birds in the light beam reflecting the light" but what kind of goofy birds randomly fly around in light beams in the night time? bats don't answer it because their albedo is not bright enough to reflect that much light, nor do they brighten on request.

Good catch!
