Strokestown, County Roscommon (Ireland)

Sighted on Saturday 12. July 2008
Reported on
Shape: Saturn-like | Duration: 00:00:01
Source:

My daughter photographed me at Strokestown House in Co. Roscommon, Ireland on July 12th 2008 at around 11:00. Later, inspecting photos on PC (Exilim Casio S600) I noticed funny shape over my head - zoom showed sort of saturn-like object Below and to the left was smaller ball like form - that might be camera blemish. On other photo at that house, a small sphere seemed to float over house. The sphere was more focussed, while Saturn object somewhat un-focussed -unclear if from distance or movement. It is jsut possible it may be a bird - though bird profiles I#ve found on-line don't really match - I was hoping a photo expert could distinguish the possibilities.
