Orb or not

okay these photos were taken today
and yes they are a dot but please explain what you think this is?
there is two photos with the same object or bird insect or whatever
heres the pics to me it does not look like a bird or insect
and this is not a airplane or helicopter because i would have seen it
you decide

They are too far off to give a good idea if they are Orbs or not. Did you see them, and how did they act?

The first piccie is the contrail of a high flying aircraft. Which are much harder to spot than you may think. That contrail looks like it's coming from a 2 engined plane...... most likely a 737 or 767 flying at probably around 39000-42000 feet. At that height (which I can summise from the clouds that are present.... alto-stratus and some cirrus), a plane of the size of a 737 or 767 would be quite hard to see unless it was directly overhead. More so for a 737, since they're much smaller than a 767.

The second picture is just the picture of a cloud. Those "orbs" are either on of two things, a shadow cast on some slightly lower clouds in the same formation as the one s you can see, or just globular gaps in the clouds themselves.

There's nothing unusual in those pictures.

Magnify the photos to see the orbs

i did not see these things
i will show you the photos of these airplanes which i think are very strage at first i thought they were a rocket
heres the pics

Were these photos taken by someone else??

Anyway, look real close at the second piccie..... you can just barely make out the shape of an aircraft there. It looks like it does because of the height it's flying at and also the colour of the plane itself. Most aircraft, unless they're white or just metallic, tend to blend in with the sky background. Watch one fly over your place next time and you'll see what I mean.

Why the first piccie may have looked like a rocket is due to perspective. You were looking at a contrail at height from what appears to be almost side on, but that's due to the aircraft's distance from you as the observer.

Now, if you ever get to see a high contrail that looks like "doughnuts on a string" and you hear a very low sounding rumble or pulsing sound over your area, you can count yourself very lucky. Because you may have witnessed the "Aurora" spyplane flying overhead.

these photos were taken by me today
you must admit the path of the first plane looks like a rocket at first
i did not hear anything

i saw the planes path it came straight up then moved to make the turn
at first i really thought it was a rocket
i have never seen a plane take that path from where i live
it went straight up and then turned it was very strange

Oh, Ok.

Yes it does, but I explained to you why it looks like it does. You won't hear anything from most high flying aircraft. That's due to a myriad of reasons, but mainly the height they fly at, density and temperature variations in the atmosphere and the quietness of modern jet engines compared to older planes. Although if they fly at extreme heights, like most military aircraft, you won't hear them at all, unless they're travelling faster than mach 1. Even then you can strain to hear them sometimes.

That's all due to the perspective from your position as the observer of the plane. You know from the height he was probably flying at, if it wasn't for dust and water vapour and the differences in air temperature, he would've been able to see his destination.

From 40000 feet up, your horizon distance is something like 4000 kms. That's why pilots find it so freaky flying the Antarctic tourist routes. Mountains that look like they're right next to the plane can be several hundred kilometres away. That's because the Antarctic air is cold and dry from the surface to altitude.

heres the closeups

i dont no what they are?
not enough detail
though the 3rd one looks like a bird but the 1st and 2nd one look pretty much the same object

Now, they're different. The first two could be something on your lens, which does actually look a bit dirty. However it's hard to tell what it is. In the first piccie, it looks to be higher up than the contrail you can see there. Did you actually see this object without having to look through the camera lens??.

The second photo is even more enigmatic.

The third photo maybe of a bird at distance and height to the lens, but it's too blurred to really tell.

the lens of the camera is not dirty so you can rule that out
what it is i dont no what i do no is that the camera lens is not dirty

i found these photos on google
they are similar to mine
Link
click on each photo has details and the original pic
notice the trails in the background

If you have a close look at the pics, you see those dark spots and "squiggly" sort of things on the pic, that's dust and maybe a bit of condensation that got onto the lens after you've wiped it. You can't clean the lens 100%, and the air has dust in it anyway.

It's not dirty, as in "dirty-dirty"..... big fingerprint marks and grit on the lens.

so why is it only in two pics and not all of them?

as you can see claer pics

Its a tirangle craft moving with center thruster lit, apexes are dark circles.

How it makes a trail is unknown.

Look at original I took clip of a clip by mistake and its 3rd generation.

Its not dirt its the black mode of flat coil vibration used in the thruster.
