Large glowing orb like craft over New Iberia.

It was almost 5:50 AM when I went out my back door and into the garden to water my plants. This time of day is usually very dark outside and sunrise would be approaching in about 30 minutes. I usually look at the stars as soon as I come outside, but this morning a bright ball of light immediately caught my eye.

At first I stood on my step staring and thinking how odd. My brain ran through many possible reasons why I could see this bright round shape; is there a planet really close to us, was it a search helicopter in the distance, a weird street light off in the distance, anything that I could think of. I stepped of the step and walked closer to the fence to see if I could get a better angle, possibly giving it a reference point or position. It looked to be past the bayou, and possibly past the park. Then it moved, very swiftly to the left and up. I froze blinking my eyes. Immediately telling myself no, nope, there is no way you are seeing things. Then it moved again to the right. Now I  am retreating back to my steps. I stood there staring and then I checked the surrounding sky. I could see stars, street lamps, trees, everything as normal, but nothing was as large as this object.

Then the moment came when I thought to myself, does it know that I am staring at it? I shook my head a! nd went back inside, almost had my daughter come outside to verify it. I decided against that notion, I didn't want to worry her and also it was time for her to leave for school. Made sure she was ready and out the door and I went right back outside to the garden to see if it still was there. It was and this time I took photos. I noticed in the photos it is not as prominent or as large as it was to me standing there. I moved to a different spot to gain a better angle. Still it sat in the same spot. As the sun started to rise i thought that it would disappear into the light within a few minutes. Minutes passed and I could still see it just as clear and now with little shimmers of metal. The object stayed the same shape the whole time, and no lights flashed that I saw. I started to water my garden and try and watch it at the same time. I noticed that it started to move up and I had to reposition a few times to track it through the trees. Then it slowly moved right more and then some more. I watched this object for nearly an hour, taking photos and video clips periodically. Around 7AM, I went  back into my home where I  was for about 30 minutes. When I came back out it was nowhere to be seen.

It was eerily quiet that morning. Usually there are people out, lots of wildlife wandering in and out of backyard or the neighbors. No squirrels, raccoons, cats, dogs, opossums, children, trash trucks, work trucks... nothing. I waited to read about it from other people in the paper, local blogs, texts, instagram, something.  No one said anything, and I felt awkward telling anyone. It was there large, round, brilliantly bright and quiet on a very still morning for at least an hour that I knew of.

Streak of light appears in picture at dusk near New Iberia, LA.

While driving west on US90 in New Iberia,LA we were looking at the sunset just as darkness was settling in. It was raining lightly as the cloud bank was beginning to clear the area. My daughter asked if she could take a picture with our digital camera. I told her not to use the flash because the light reflects back at you when it hits the raindrops. She took several pictures some of which did not comeout for various reasons. When I downloaded the pictures to my laptop I observed a picture that had a white streak in it that was not there when we took the picture. My daughter, wife and I did not see this object in the air when the picture was taken. The picture you will see has some streaks in it from the raindrops, but this streak of light jumps off the screen at you. There appears to be another in the distance on the right side of the photo. Object I would say is at appx 30,000 to 35,000 ft in altitude. I do not believe this to be a contrail for several reasons, I would have noticed them being an airline employee, and during this time of year contrails are not usually that visible or bright and would be visible across the pictue. Object(s) are moving towards the west, resembles a comet in appearance. Picture is being emialed to you.

Very bright object along busy highway

We were traveling east on US 90 around New Iberia,LA Craft looked like a blump, bright yellow with white square lights along the side.

I first spotted the craft very low along a tree line as it semmed to move out of sight behind the tree line. At that time I did not say anything about it thinking it was a very low flying plane/blump?. We traveled about five miles and the wife said why is that yellow plane flying so low as I turned to look I saw it again and then it was gone from sight as if it went behind the tree line again. I told her I had saw it a few miles backs and stopped on the road to get a better look but did not see it again.

On a clear, cloudless day at 12:00 noon my buddy and I saw this craft at a maximum altitude of 100 to 200 feet.

A friend of mine and I were throwing a football in his backyard around noon on a perfectly clear October sky. We started to throw high passes to each other when I saw a tiny silver object at a high altitude. I thought nothing of it because at that time there was a U.S. Naval Base located just North of New Iberia and seeing aircraft was a frequent everyday sight for us. We continued to throw the football to each other and I decided to throw a high pass back to my friend. We both looked up at the ball and we both became nearly speechless. There was a huge circular chrome craft with a circular shaped bar going from one side of the craft to the other. It had a clear glass looking globe in the center. I told my friend to get his dad, quick. His dad came out of the house and saw it. When he came out the craft rose in altitude until it was out of sight. It took it maybe a second or two to do this. The strange thing about it was it made no noise at all. His dad who was a Naval officer in World War 2 went inside immediately and called the Naval Base. He spoke to the radar personnel and asked them if they had seen anything strange on their radar and he gave them the approximate time we saw this thing. They told him it was probably just a weather balloon. He then told them about his Naval career and told them no weather balloon could have traveled that fast.

Every time I go back home and run into my friend I ask him if he remembers what we saw and he says yes. I asked him to draw it to make sure it was what I remembered what it looked like and his sketch matched what I saw. I don't tell anyone about this anymore because they don't believe it and think I am crazy. Some say they have seen strange lights at night but my buddy and I saw this craft on a cloudless day.
