I was watching a full halo prism all day long. I happened to see a shiny, silver orb close to the halo I was looking at.
I stopped and watched it to rule out different things it could be. It was not moving at all, and seemed less than a mile or 2 away.
I got in my work truck and was able to drive home, which was less then a mile away to get my camera. I took a few shots before I lost sight of it through the tree line.
Two hours later, low flying helicopters were around. I have pictures of them too. I witnessed this orb move in every direction in a slow, smooth motion. The pictures are not as good as I wish, and for that I am sorry.
My heart was racing so I was lucky to be able to get home and get a camera before it decided to move out of sight. One image is a zoomed-in negative of the orb.
