Upside down reflections on night shots.

[Jaszek]

Today I decided to get myself a Tripod and go out and take some night shots. It went grat but on some photos I get an upside down reflection of the lights. For the shot attached I used a sigma DG 70-300mm lens zoomed in completely on a Canon XSI. I have a Tiffen UV Protector lens attached so might that be the cause of the problem? I'm new to photography so thanks ahead of any tips.

I've never even thought about taking the UV filter off. Come to think of it, I have had this in a few of my shots, but I assumed it was lens flare...although it's blatantly not...
