I took these pictures at a notoriously haunted cemetery and it was not rainy or moist out. Im sure alot of these are dust or pollen etc, but am looking for the opinion of others (preferably somewhat educated on the subject) or those who can at least provide me with links other than ghostweb.com please.

  1. I didn't see anything that would make me think you actually got orbs. It looked more like dust catching the light to me. Sorry, sweetie. I hate to kind of shoot you down, but I don't think that's what you caught.

    Contact me sometime in the next week or so and I'll have some interesting pictures to share if you like.

    Keep trying, sweetie. You'll catch something, I promise.


  2. Looks more like a moon??? :S

  3. The term orb is the popular name given to typically circular anomalies appearing in photographs. In photography and video, orbs appear to be balls, diamonds, or smears of light with an apparent size in the image ranging from a golfball to a basketball. Orbs sometimes appear to be in motion, leaving a trail behind them.

    Orbs are pale and circular anomalies, sample right, that have been linked with the paranormal.Orbs can be of any colour, but are typically off white, can be any shape, but are usually circular.  They can appear crisp or fuzzy, in isolation, multiples or clusters.Orbs, properly, are seen on stills photographs (usually from digital cameras) or on nightshot camcorder footage since the mid 1990s.  Various circular light anomalies have been seen with the naked eye, but these have little to do with 'orbs'; skeptics suggest that orbs could be reflections off of dust particles that are floating in a room, or off of a moth or some other insect flying around.  

    however;If orbs were caused by dust particles floating about a room, the photo should be nearly white with the reflection coming off of all the dust particles.  So why are there only one, or a few, orbs in some photos?

  4. wow thats freaky one of those showed up in a photo at my dead aunts house..

  5. I would say this is the product of a dirty camera lens.
