We were visiting lyme park in disley, uk on 13th august 2017. it was a sunny day with only some high cirrus-clouds at the time. we sat down in the garden to look at the estate and took some pictures. after laying down in the grass i looked up in the sky. there was a plane flying by at high altitude. far behind it i saw what appeared to be a bright star. this was odd, because it was about 3:45 pm and no moon nor stars where otherwise visible. the star changed in brightness which was unusual, because at first there were no cirrusclouds in front of it and still de brightness changed. perhaps it was a sattelite or the iss, but it stayed stationary in the sky. after about a few minutes some cirrusclouds past in front of it and although the 'star' was a bit less visible, but you could still see it changing in brightness. i therefore tried to focus on it -after the clouds where gone- with my camera (200mm lens) and took a photograph. the first photograph showed on zooming in on the camerascreen just a bright dot. i therefore took a second photograph and at zooming in i saw that it had a shape. when i looked up again, some more cirrus clouds passed but the object had dissapeared. i later saw some more aircraft flying past, but the appeared lower in altitude than the object.
