Dark Orb Caught on Film Dec 12 2008

Today while scanning the sky I was observing the strange cloud formations I came across something very odd. The object appeared as I continued to film in perfect view. It happened to be a dark orb, transparent and very mobile. This orb drifted and changed positions as I filmed. I had to adjust several times until it vanished . I found other strange cloud types , one particular looked like a linear cloud. I focused on it ,then scanned the sky further and came across the orb yet again. This proves that it was not a dust particle or camera mulfunction since it appeared in different parts of the sky at different times. Plus I should mention that I was able to video tape this dark orb during the day never at the same location twice. Very bizzare, first for me this kind of capture.
The final clip is more of the same , in total I located the dark orb three times today , I hope that I can gather more footage of this type of "dark orb" again.

I'm sure you will be able to capture more of the same if you repeat the conditions you are filming in.
This greeblie is known as a lens flare effect.
This happens when the filming conditions (such as what you were filming in) cause a reflective object to 'ghost' in your camera lens.
You notice that the movement of the camera directly effects the opposing movement of the 'dark orb'.
You say you taped this in different times and areas, my question is, scientifically if you can capture this orb again with a different camera in different weather conditions?
It would also be interesting to see if the orb would move while you were holding still.

THAT WOULD BE GREAT TO SHOW EVIDENCE, I MUST SAY THAT THE ORB DID IN FACT MOVE IN ONE SPECIFIC SEQUENCE IT MOVES ENTIRELY IN A DIRECTION THAT MAKES THIS NOT A FLARE. WATCH THE FOOTAGE PROVIDED AND YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN.
I THANK YOU FOR YOU INPUT JAWA LUNK
