Paulimer,
Great shot and from your window no less.
How do you stack frames in Photoshop? Are you using Elements or Photoshop 7?

Steve, I did it in PS7. Just drag one image on another and set the transparency (like 50%), then flatten image.

litespeed - I checked out your daytime pic and the "something" mystery object next to it with a planetarium program. I was curious to see if it was a star or something else. Based on the program, the only somewhat bright star in the vacinity was 5.5 magnitude, and it was much too far away at that.
It doesn't really look like an aircraft either, I would think that an aircraft through a telescope would look larger and take up more pixels (unless perhaps it was a fighter jet at 50,000).
I don't think it was a satellite, either. Even though I've seen all mannor of wierd stuff pass in front of the moon while observing it, I wouldn't think a satellite would be bright enough in daylight to be recorded.
I could possibly be a white bird - thy could get high enough, or far enough away, that they'd be that small in the frame.
Personally, I'd guess it to be a weather balloon.
Anyhow, nice pic, and a fun little investigation...
