Message: Hello. I'm a photographer and I have the exciting job of taking pictures of plants. Fun fun. However, during one of my times, I saw this strange object zooming around the sky. Now it was higher when I first saw it. It came down in a kind of zigzag pattern but quite rapidly. I had my cell phone camera with me and took a picture about 10 seconds before it dashed out of my line of sight.

I feel ashamed because I had my cell phone camera and not my work camera but oh well. I put it on my computer and stared at it. I didn't want to say or admit to myself it was a UFO. I don't know what it is but my view on whether or not we are alone in the universe changed quite dramatically quite quickly.

I zoomed in to the object to get a better look and upped the contrast a bit so I can see what it is. I'm a bit shaken up as I type this but I thought I would submit it here while I can. Here is the unaltered picture and the picture of it zoomed in with the contrast upped.

Info: It was taken on December 23rd at about 11am in Yucca Valley, California. It was a relatively clear sky. It came and went in a total of about 1 minute. It made no sounds. It was light colored and seemed larger than what it appears in the pic.
