Solved I thought these were clip on earrings, but they hurt like hell to put on. What else could they be? They're from the Met Museum Gift Shop.

I thought it was an onion at first but that's impossible. LOL. It feels kind of rubbery. I've never seen anything inside of an eggshell before.

Open What is this in the sky above Cardiff?

Thumbnail gallery
32 Upvotes

I took this picture in Cardiff (pic 1) around 7am because the sky had a beautiful hue, and I wanted to paint it. At the time, I noticed what I thought was a tiny cloud in the sky, but I didn’t think much of it. Later, when I looked back at the photo, I noticed that this strange shape did not really resemble a cloud. I tried to debunk it, thinking it might be a lens flare caused by the lamp post reflecting on my phone camera, but I also took another picture from a few steps back (pic 2) and a different angle, and the shape was still there. I took the photo outside, not through a window or anything that could create a reflection and my camera lens isn’t damaged or anything. I really have no idea what it could be—any thoughts?

My dad gave me this about 30 years ago. I think he found it in MD, PA or VA, in a field or in the woods. I am the one who broke it and glued it back together years ago.
