I was getting ready for work on the morning of 3-27, and a really nice looking sunrise started to come up so I decided to take a few photos. Normally when I want to take a picture of something I snap off a bunch of photographs in a row. Typically this gets me at least one of them that turns out really nice. I never heard or noticed anything during my picture taking. It wasn't until after I cropped and posted one of them on my facebook page in the morning on 3-29 that I noticed something that looked like a reflective glare above the sunrise. This prompted me to restore the sequence of photos that I took to see if this was apparent in all photos. At first going through the sequence nothing made itself apparent until I got aprox half way through them. I am attaching the last part of the sequence of photos that I took, 10 in all. Which show this object or glare rising and changing position throughout the sequence. I am guessing that I took all of the last 13 pictures within a 30 sec time frame. I had no inclinations of anything odd at the time the pictures were taken. I am still not sure if these are just glare or not, but thought it worth someone taking a more educated look at. Since this site will only let me upload 10 pictures I am attaching the last 10 in the sequence. I would be happy to send the rest if requested, and I kept the whole sequence of 25 photos if wanted as well.
