As luck would have it, my sister was able to get a shot of what she and I saw on the night of Nov. 27, 2008. Granted it's not the smoking gun that everyone wants, but it's still interesting. Any camera can't take a decent night shot without a good source of light and unfortunately this photo isn't the exception. But what is interesting is even before I tweaked the contrast and brightness is that you can see an orange light in the sky. So whatever it was, it was bright enough to show up on camera.
This is the unaltered original photo. You can barely see the orange object in the top third of the picture.

This is after I enhanced the photo. The object is much easier to see.

I know these aren't the best photos, but it's still something. There is one more photo that my sister took, though it's extremely dark but I'm going to see what I can do with it. I'm hoping someone else saw the same thing and can help elaborate what it was we saw.
