Photographic anomaly

My dad wakes up at 5:45am for work. He woke me up to remind me of the meteor shower. I got outside but it was cold. Right before I got back into the house I saw something. I was looking East-South-East about 20 degrees over the horizon. I looked like a very bright star. But the more I looked at it the stranger it appeared.

It was far too bright for a star. It was mostly yellow and was glittering hard. Sometimes it turned purplish. So I thought it was a helicopter or an airplane. But after waiting 20 minutes I noticed it wasn't moving. I went inside and took a picture of the light with my digital camera. And went back inside to sleep and thought nothing of it.

The next day I left for a vacation and didn't get home till the 21st. I uploaded the pictures from my camera to my computer and was struck by the "UFO" picture. I just looks weird.

I made a previous UFO report on this website. After that bizarre sighting I've been taking a second glance every time I look up in the sky. And again I'd like to clarify my opinion of the sighting. It's merely an "unidentified flying object", not a space craft piloted by ghosts or whatever.
