I will analyze your video for free. No charge. I have the capability of doing video frame grabbing, and I have webspace available to make all the grabs, or a good sampling, available to other parties interested in your sighting.

I remember someone on this list stated ships reflecting sunlight can sometimes appear on coastal horizons. Being a land-locked Iowan...I have no idea what this looks like, but checking with the local shipping authorities would be prudent. If no ships were present in the area of the sighting, then it's a no brainer on that particular theory. I do not question you saw something....you have it on video...but I don't know if we can dub it "anomalous" until all possibilities are exhausted. > May 22nd, the third evening, I set up the video camera as on the > previous night, and they kindly showed themselves again.

Again I would urge you to make this tape available for an independent researcher to analyze. If not myself....someone who has the observational and technical skills to extract as much information from it as possible. If these glowing orbs are a reality, and you have caught one floating above the water on film, no matter what your initial intent was...you have entered the realm of ufology :) > > I believe when we begin gathering multiple photographic evidence > > of single events, then possibly our understanding of these > > objects will be broadened.

Perhaps we can be happy with orbs being part of our normal reality...eh? cheers, Bryan! -- _________________ - - - - ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Dreamsenses: The Home of Being! - http://www.raccoon.com/~bryan The Des Moines Astronomical Society - http://www.sciowa.org/~dmas The Near Pathfinder Anomaly Analysis Group - http://www.mufor.org/ares _________________ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
