A Fast Moving Air Orb

Photo date: November 6, 2014

In this indoor photo of a wall, we see what photographers call
a "ghosting" effect that is a sign of rapid movement. Given my camera's shutter speed of  1/2000 of a second, an effect like this would never be produced by something like the movement of an insect. The orb was apparently moving  much faster than any insect does. No insect was seen at this location during the previous 60 days.




Dust level: 190/0 (Fair).  Reflective objects nearby: none. The orb was about 10% of the height of the full picture. No orbs shown in photos taken at same location from same angle soon before and soon after this photo was taken, which argues against any dust explanation.
