    "Orbs" caught on camers

    Interesting footage from Australia. I know that most orbs are likely to be dust reflecting the IR light from the camera, though these don't move the way I would expect dust to do so. Regardless, I doubt they are ghosts, and unlike some, I don't see any faces as some seem to be claiming. Still an...

    lens flare/orbs/radionics/quantum physics...help!

    I'm involved in a discussion with a fairly prominent alternative health practitioner about what his photos of (in my opinion) lens flare actually are. It took more of a pseudoscience-y twist than I expected, and I thought I could get some help here. I've basically said that the photos he...

    The Orb Project

    My girlfriend recently gave me a book entitled "The Orb Project" as a gift (she meant it to be funny I assure you) and it is just too good for me not to share. It was written by professor of systematic theology Miceal Ledwith and Dr. Klaus Heinemann, who has a Ph.D. in experimental physics...

    Sending in Fake Ghost Images: Risks?

    I friend of mine (seriously, a friend of mine, not me) wants to send in fake/photoshopped images of orbs and other "ghost" phenomenon to that Ghost Hunter show and the reveal that they were fakes. Now, what are the risks involved with doing this? I'm pretty sure she can be sued for doing this...

    When Orbs Attack

    While surfing around for astronomy videos, I somehow stumbled across this on YouTube. The poster apparently thinks an "orb" was captured on the remastered Cosmos DVD series during Ann Druyan's introduction. I'm not quite sure why, but the comments really made me laugh (and, it appears s/he's...

    Just for fun - I have no comment. Man Seeks Ghost: On spectral safari with the Ghost Seekers of Texas http://www.sacurrent.com Although an "alternative" publication, the San Antonio Current is usually not particularly woo, so I don't know what's up here.

    Orbs

    when i was a kid i was convinced there were ghosts in my room, if i set up a camera with the lights off it would record what i had seen referenced on TV as orbs, i eventually realised it was probably dust reflecting the light from the camera, it looked like every other instance of orbs i had...

    For Ghost Hunters: Spirit Orbs

    This site teaches you to distinguish between orbs caused by dust, raindrops, etc. and real spirit orbs created by actual spirits: http://www.ghostweb.com/orb_theory.html Well, at least that's what the site claims to do.

    Orbs - Group Forum Photo Experiment

    One of the most interesting phenomena that is classified under "paranormal" are orbs - often photographed at the scenes of haunted places. What are everyone's conventional thoughts on this; lens flare/smudges/dust? Where I'm at now, Athens, has quite a bit ofN haunted places, especially The...

    feathers and orbs

    "Feathers found in your house are from angels" whats wrong with the reasoning,( is it circular?) It seems to be a variant of the orb argument, "x (orbs, feathers) is evidence of (paranormal claim e.g spirits, angels) though x is explainable by another means (dust, from pillows) some of x are...

    Orbs #2 in the commentary

    Looks like some massive lens flare. Was there a flash reflection just off-film (or sensor) there? It looks like one.

    orbs

    So I was filming (sorry, I don't want to confuse anyone - I was videographing) the rain through a window yesterday when I noticed a large, white circle. It was a perfect circle showing up in the viewfinder. How odd. It was the reflection of the camera in the window. How often do you suppose...

    Big ghost orbs flying around Winston on video! (irrefutable!)

    Those of you on the JREF forum who asked me why all cameras picked up orbs, but only some humans do, have been proven wrong. A few weeks ago, I went on a ghost hunt with my local group. I brought my camcorder and two other people brought theirs too. The thing is, my camcorder didn't pick up...
