Possibly a star ?

I was going to say star, but it think it is a distant galaxy. It has poor imaging at the beginning of the night's photography. It may be a distant round galaxy, and SkyServer has labelled it as a galaxy. It has a PhotoZ, but SkyServer and PhotoZ are run by computer software, which can make mistakes.

It is slightly fuzzier than a star.
Possibly It may be a star with some nebulosity around it.
here is a nearby star, in comparison
It should be classified as smooth, round, but actually it will probably end up labelled as star/artifact. A better image would help.
