Yellowish/Orange oval sphere observed in Poulsbo, Wa.

June 22, 2013, at approximately 9:30 pm, I was with a group of people who witnessed a “fire ball” cruising along above the harbor in Poulsbo, Washington.

At first we thought it was possibly a Chinese type lantern with a candle inside that was flaming. Then we realized that it appeared much too large at such a distance to be a lantern.

We observed it for close to a minute when I decided to take a photo. At that point the “fire ball” slipped into the forest surrounding the harbor.

It wasn’t a “ball” it was oval in shape. The oval was upright as it glided above the harbor. There was no apparent fire, nor no fire reported as a result of this “fire ball” entering a highly forested area.
