 Yes I did notice the faint trail.  The shot was from about 2:30 to 4:00 AM

 on Friday the 10th of May.  Astronomical twilight was starting around 4:45.

 Do you think the sun may have glinted off a satellite?  An irridium flare

 would have a longer bright trail, right?


 This low in the south what type of satellite should I look for?


 Thanks all.

OK Jim:
Here in Texas we call that a "UFO".
