Topic: Orb Photos ?

In my digital photo collection I have picked up various pictures of orbs as I have gone along. I have automatically assumed that they are caused by particles of dust, pollen, etc.

But I have two photos that don't quite fit into that area.

The first was taken around the time of the full moon in August 2004, the second, again around the time of the full moon in October 2004. Both were taken in the back garden where I was living at the time, and both show the same view. Both have been enhanced to bring up more of the picture.

That's a great photo of the orb in motion, what shutter speed did you use?

I can barely take a picture (in twilight/dark) nowadays without the orbs on them.

Re: Orb Photos ?

They were taken on my old digital camera, a 3Mp Olympus D395. The EXIF data says that the exposure on both was 1/30th sec at f2.8 with an ISO setting of 150, the flash fired on both occasions.

You can see ordinary orbs on both pictures and the bright spot is the full moon.

Hello Pellucidar  ... I am in Queensland, Australia and have collected more than 700 pics with orbs in the past year.  I really don't know what causes them ... I have found that when the atmosphere is very dry they show up less but they are still there.  Living in the sub tropics, it's very wet here at this time of year and some of my orb pics are as clear as the moon on yours.   I'd love to know what causes them .... I have heard so many different explanations.  I even have some inside of the house.  A couple are extremely clear and seem to have a design, almost like the patterns in crop circles, inside of them.   I'd be happy to share a couple if you're interested.

Re: Orb Photos ?

I used to practice regularly with a Falun Gong group and sometimes people there would take photos of others doing the qigong exercises or sitting in meditation. It wasn't uncommon for fairly distinct, yet small orbs to appear on the pictures, while others often reported seeing these things while peforming the exercises.

Some of those supposed orbs were in my opinion more likely then not dust particles, but there were also those that definately looked 'real' and not anything that I can recall having seen before in photos.

It's interesting to read that some people have seen crop circle type patterns in the orbs, because some Falun Gong people claim to have seen the complex falun symbol within the orbs, although I never witnessed these myself.

I took this one very stormy night when there had been a lot of activity around.  It was nearly cyclonic here at the time and yet they were there.  I was trying to catch an image of them touching the towel or ground to see what happened next ...

The other images are random ...   I just chose a few that were nice and clear to see...

If you guys are really interested in this phenomenon you might like to check out this website.  There is a lot of research being conducted and quite a bit of scientific explanation re the causes and what they are...

Re: Orb Photos ?

During one of our last snows, I threw birdseed outside and took pictures of the birds.  Now, I know there are lots of snowflakes, but I can see them individually, and they're irregular.  I still don't know what I think of orbs.  Are they just things that cameras pick up in certain atmospheric conditions (rain, snow, high humidity), or are they actual entities that are drawn to particular conditions?  I haven't figured it out, but here they are in abundance in any case.

Re: Orb Photos ?

I took this pic last year around halloween in my room, a pic of my daughter in her costume. Actually I took two, but this one had these two orbs that weren't in the other pic. This is the first time that I have seen orbs or whatever they are in my pics.

Re: Orb Photos ?

Globug, if you look closely, you'll see one or two more faint ones at the top, right where the wall connects to the ceiling.

I had an orb show up in a recent picture taken of me, as well. It was right in front of my chest, and it didn't appear in the picture taken right after it.

Re: Orb Photos ?

You are correct Lono, I noticed that too, but didn't circle it cuz I wasn't sure if it was an orb or not. I know this isn't the correct thread to ask this, but are orbs associated with attachments in any way? just curious. And further, how would I know if I had an attachment? of any kind? hmmmm.
