What are these balls of transparent light we find in so many photos taken in these fast moving times? What about these photos of “spirit clouds”, “ectoplasma”, or “plasma energy” that appear quickly in and out of sight? I’ve asked our guides these questions and they said it is not yet time for us to know. Like the Crop Circles, we are still at a time of exploration. In time, we will have an understanding. This adds immensely to the curiosity and mystery so many of us feel when we come in contact with these very interesting anomalies. No one seems to have the true answer to these questions yet, but I trust the answers are right around the corner.

This is how one investigative photographer describes Orbs: “We do not know what orbs truly are, just that they seem to be found mainly in areas where there is ghost activity, I will tell you what they are not. On a normal investigation there are about 10 people using 10 different cameras, 35mm and digital, and many speeds and brands of film. They all get their film developed at separate places. Let’s say only half of these investigators get some orb photos. Are these water spots or dirt on the lens? That would mean that 5 people all had similar dirt on their lens and all 5 did not clean their lens either. Are these orbs film processing errors? Well the 35mm cameras all had their film developed in different locations and used different film so that is very unlikely. The digital cameras can’t have film-processing errors. I am aware that some people feel that the orbs on a digital camera are an error in the digital processing of the image. When that error does occur in digital photos, the objects tend to be square in nature, not round and they cannot be semi-transparent, the pixel behind would have to be corrupted also. I will not even address the precipitation theory, no legitimate researchers takes photos in any form of precipitation. What about dust and dirt being stirred up? Can that be the cause of the orbs? If that were the case, I would think that there would not be normal photos in a sequence of photos from the same camera and location. All of the shots in a sequence should have the dust or dirt in it. We find that most orb photos do not appear in consecutive photos. All photographers present should get orbs if it is dust being stirred up as well”. Dave Juliano.

These are just a few things for the skeptics to think of when they are condemning an orb photo as a fake or fraud and some things to consider when checking your photos. There are other theories concerning ORBS. I have in the past heard such theories that orbs might simply be nature spirits or protoplasm as you would find under a microscope, except far more advanced. So, I’ll let everyone decide for themselves what these spirit clouds and orbs represent for you. Let me know what you come up with!
