On May 3, 2010, at 13: 19, my wife and I were traveling to Abilene for a six-month medical examination.

We were driving southwest on Highway 351. As we were approaching a wind farm located northwest of Abilene, I felt the need to take some photos, so I did. 

I saw a few small bright flashes of light in the sky, but I couldn't tell what it was. When I finally uploaded the photos to my laptop, two special photos stood out. There are several white dots to the left of the first photo.This is the place in the sky where the flashes of light caught my attention. 

In the center of the photo is an unknown object, and three-quarters from the bottom of the photo and slightly to the left of the center, there seems to be a blunt triangle of lights. 

There are a couple of light streaks, but I assume that these are tiny scratches on the windshield along with a lot of bug spots. After I uploaded the photos and looked at them, I went to the pickup and checked if any of these anomalies could match the errors, but they didn't, so I decided it might be worth reporting. 

The photo was taken on a Sony Cyber-shot, f / 7, 1/640 sec., 100 ISO, apt-3, FL-10 mm, without flash. I also have another photo taken on the way back (again through the windshield), which shows white spherical objects in a completely different place. These are not reflections, spots, birds, planes, Venus, swamp gas, etc.

Summary:  May 3, 2010 @ 1:19 p.m., my spouse and I were driving to Abilene for my six month medical check up. We were driving SW on Hwy 351. As we were coming up on the wind farm located NW of Abilene, I felt the need to take a few photos, so I did. I had seen several small bright flashes of light in the sky but could not tell what it was. When I finally downloaded the photos to my laptop, two particular photos stood out. To the extreme left of the first photo, are some white dots. This is the location in the sky where the flashes of light caught my attention. In the center of the photo is an unknown object and 3 quarters of the way up from the bottom of the photo and just left of center, there appears to be an obtuse triangle formation of lights. There are a couple of light streaks but I am assuming they are minute scratches on the windshield, along with an amount of bug splats. After I downloaded the photos and looked at them, I went out to the pickup and checked to see if any of these anomalies might match up with the bug splatters but they didn’t, so I decided it might be worth reporting. The photo was taken with a Sony Cyber-shot, f/7, 1/640 sec., 100 ISO, apt-3, FL-10mm, no flash. I also have another photo taken on the way back (again through the windshield), that shows white orb-like objects in an entirely different location. They are not reflections, smudges, birds, airplanes, Venus, swamp gas, etc.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Капля (или загрязнение) на объективе или стекле

Often it's a small point on the photos, like hovering metal ball. At least - this is quite a big blur. Color, brightness and the presence of a highlight depends on the color of the reflected light source, background shooting and drop form.

Shape, color and density of pollution may vary depending on the source of the contamination and its nature. This can be as a desired pattern on the glass, and random.
