Several of my family members launched approximately 15 balloons secured together at a park. Balloons went towards the sun and we watched them for quite some time. Several pictures were taken of the event. Upon viewing the pictures, a purplish figure type object was seen above the balloons and the sun to the left of the photo. A green orb was below the balloons to the right. These were all in a direct line. the green orb, then balloons (going towards the sun) then the purplish object. The purplish object/figure looked like a face book friend request icon. I don't know any other way to describe it. The sun was very bright so we did not notice anything until we saw the pictures. Our family is torn on what this was. It was very strange that it was all in a line. Since this was a memorial for a family member, I'd like to think the purplish object was my family member waiting to receive the balloons, and my husband thinks the green orb may have been some type of UFO. We have never seen this type of thing in a picture, so thought it might be worth investigating.The pictures were forwarded on Face Book, so although no one actually physically witnessed the light and object, several people did notice it in the pictures.
