What Is This?

ANOTHER AERIAL MYSTERY

I went out for a walk rather late the other day, and on an impulse, photographed the cloudy sky over the sinking sun.  The two shots below were taken just a moment apart and they are more or less identical, save for one detail.













What is that thing floating in the first quadrant?  I didn't notice it when I snapped the shot.

Maybe there is a prosaic explanation, like yet another "lens flare", or a stray reflection or whatever;  however, the fact that the two shots are of the exact same view, taken one right after the other under identical conditions, and yet the object only appears in one of the shots makes most such hypotheses unlikely.


Whatever it was, it must have been moving fast, to have made it that deep into the frame during the short interval that passed between the two shots -- so why didn't I notice it at the time?  Was it perhaps invisible to the naked eye?
