Sky Orbs Congregate Above the Towers

Photo date: July 22, 2015. Photographer: Mark Mahin.

The photo below shows some mysterious orbs drifting in the Manhattan sky. The original photo has been reduced in width, but has not been reduced in height.

There was no fog, mist, rain, or precipitation on this night. The air quality listed on airnow.gov was good, with a rating of 23 (anything below 50 is considered good). The pollen level was medium.

On the same minute I took the photo above, I did a "cardboard test" to test whether I might be photographing natural particles in front of my camera. As always, this test (which I have tried many times before) showed no orbs in front of the cardboard.
