Is It a Meteor or Iridium Flare

Hi Guys.n regard to my image of the Trantula Neb just posted in Deep Space, could someone please assist and determine if it is a Meteor or in fact a Iridium Flare, as I can't get any reference to a flare occuring at the time, from the Heavens Above site.

Irridium satalites are not the only ones that flair!
With over a a few thousand objects up there you are bound to have lots of flairing.
