Thanks for the info - I couldn't figure out what it might have been, as it appeared to be BEHIND the balloons, but a reflection would make sense.
Here's my one and only UFO photo. This was taken January 1, 1988, from a hilltop in Poway, California. I was hiking with a friend at the time, and had my long-lens Pentax when these things flew directly overhead. Because they were DIRECTLY overhead, absolutely nothing to use for perspective - but I would estimate their altitude at maybe 5,000 feet. The objects looked to be semi-transparent, but maybe that was an illusion caused by reflected light. Size - maybe twice the size of a passenger jet? Hard to say.
Showed these to some friends in the Navy, but no one could identify them. The photos were taken maybe 10 miles from what was, then, the "top gun" facility, so I've always wondered if they were some sort of military craft, but... to this day they remain a mystery.
