Is It an Anomaly?

A photographer working in a remote, high-desert community in the American Southwest shot a seven-frame sequence — and only discovered the anomaly after reviewing the images later. In two of the seven photographs, an orb-shaped object appears. It wasn't visible to the naked eye during the shoot. The other five frames? Clean. No orb. The location is genuinely isolated: low light pollution, sparse population, no major airports or obvious air traffic corridors nearby. The witness wasn't hunting for UFOs — they were just taking photos and found something unexpected on the camera roll afterward. The two-frame appearance is the detail that makes this harder to dismiss than a single-frame fluke. A lone artifact could be dust, a sensor hiccup, or a rogue lens flare. Two appearances in a multi-shot sequence — and then nothing — raises the bar. No corroborating witnesses, no publicly embedded images, no camera metadata on file. Just a NUFORC report and a pattern that doesn't fit neatly into the standard explanations.
