I know these things are real, I've photographed them on three different occasions, twice over Puget Sound and once over Juanita Beach, the first two times they were hovering stationary in the air, the last time there was a group of eight of them moving fairly rapidly, and I know those that I photographed were about eight feet in diameter because an identifiable aircraft flew through the same clouds at the same level and I was able to identify that craft, find out the diameter of the craft, and by counting pixels, calculate the size of these orbs. The orbs I photographed had exactly the same appearance. Lastly I've also spotted on on Google Earth.
