Speeding Enigma in Vivid Yellow

Photo date: June 23, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

In the photo below (which is a simple crop of a larger photo, without any color or tint adjustment), we see a yellow-colored orb that seems to be in motion.

Below is a closeup, which shows the "comet tail" we so often see in orbs.  This was not the moon, which was a crescent moon on this night.

There was no fog, mist, rain, or precipitation while I was photographing this night (there had been a summer shower a few hours earlier). The air quality was "moderate," and the pollen count (as listed on pollen.com) was low to medium (with a level of 3.5).
