hi all, i am a keen photographer and love taking pics of anything and everything, last night i was out in my garden just randomly snapping away and when i uploaded my pictures i saw these lights and orbs, can anyone explain how they appeared on my pic but i couldn't see them with the naked eye, here's the pic i took below, later on i went back out and took more but there was nothing on my pictures but darkness, no lights and no orbs, is this something to do with my camera i used a fujifilm S 5000 with a 10x optical zoom 1=57 5.7mm

I honestly couldn't tell you what caused this but I doubt they're true 'orbs' because you don't usually get that many at one time. At least, I've never known of so many true orbs so close together; it doesn't mean that it couldn't happen, though.

That's really strange, I must say. Did you use a flash each time?


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

yes i used a flash, maybe there was alot of moisture in the air last night, but i won't pass it off as some kind of spirit, i am two ways about pictures of orbs and other unexplained images that i capture, in my website i took some pics of the inside of my house and i actually caught an image of a face in my mirror which really freaked me out, the mirror was clean, no smudges of dust on it, but this face is clear, yo can see it very clearly, as you know i do have a keen interest on the paranormal side of things, some say that these orbs are spirits, and some say that it's dust and moisture so i will keep an open mind about this....thanks mental.... happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. mentalward (4357)   ranked 655 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

I noticed that some of the white spots are truly round while others have no distinctive shape. That definitely warrants some consideration! You'd think, if it was just dust, they'd all either be round or not round.

I also believe that there are more spirits on your continent than mine since yours has been inhabited by many people for a very long time. Ours has been populated, too, but only by the Indians and they weren't many! It wasn't until the pilgrims came that it began to be more heavily populated. So, there would naturally be more spirits where you live.

Those perfectly round orbs just MAY be spirits!


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

well you never know what they are, i need to have then anylised first by someone who knows more about them, i do think that there ate alot of spirits around but i am yet to see one for real....so again, i keep an open mind about stuff like this..

I don't know much about orbs as in spirits Tatty; but maybe they are links to past lives somehow. I don't know how you would go about verifying such a thing, if you are able to at all. But very interesting.


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

yes it is very interesting, i mean before digital cameras were invented i used to use my regular 35ml and i used to capture orbs on that, i could not really trust the normal cameras because sometimes they can double expose and give me the illusion that i have captured something spectacular, but i do keep an open mind about spirits and i judge for myself what i think these images could be, but who knows, they could be spirits, or they could be specs of dust or even moisture in the air, i still call them orbs....we'll never really know what they are unless we have firm proof that things around us are of people who have left this world and came back to see us

There is a lot of orbs in that photograph you have taken. What is strange is a few of them have like a glow to them. I think this is amazing as you did not notice them until after the photograph was developed. Thanks for sharing this Tattylashes. It does seem a very strange photograph.


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

hi hildas, there's a mix of different images here, lights and orbs which makes me wonder why they are there, sometimes i think, ok we have a bit of moisture out tonight so that's why there's orbs, but them lights get me, especially the one that looks like a bent arrow...(bigger light)

Hi tatty,


There are a lot of orbs and I think it is very spooky, I don't know how you can live there, I would be so scared. Did you feel strange at all while you were takeing the picture? Love and hugs.

myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

i felt fine tamara, it was cold but nothing spooky out there, i am used to the strange goings on in this house, so i have become accustomed to it now, sometimes i think, hmmmmmmm moisture in the air, but you can tell if the air has moisture, these are lights, they weren't there when i went out but they were when i uploaded the pic...pretty strange....

It looks to me like it is the camera flash reflecting off dust or moisture in the air. These air particles are almost always completely naked to the human eye, but there is enough there to reflect light and appear in photographs.

Something could have recently happened outside to kick up a lot of dust (probably the wind) then when you went out a second time to photograph, the dust had settled. Or if it was moisture, the conditions could have just changed since you went out last and the air became dryer.


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

hi trickiwoo, yes that is possible, i am keeping an open mind on this and i will continue to photograph things to see what i can find....thankyou....

hi there
like you i love photography & i took photo of my grandparents etc... gravestones & i took one of my granny Aileen's headstone & all i saw when i got the photo's back was this photo that i saw was a resemblance of a figure of maybe bones & very little skin & yet there was nothing behind me no sun behind me nothing shining & nothing around me not 1 person except me in the whole cemetery on that day.
as for your pic i think maybe some-thing maybe from the past/ something from the then & now in the stars lol
maybe some-one else here @ mylot of our friends may be able to shed some light on the matter.

i have had pictures with orbs around or near me. at first, you'll think that it is something that you can consider a spirit but it's more like a ghost when you see and interpret it. like the one you have seen on tv. i felt something different when i saw the pics, but i guess there's nothing wrong with it. if orbs where lost spirits, then they may be spirits who love to be in a picture with somebody else. lol!! just dont think about it seriously, okay? in time you can find an explanation to it. for now, just continue your hobby.


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

hi despompa, i always get these orbs in my camera once i have uploaded them oictures especially in my back garden, always in the same place, a few nights ago i took some more and there was none, then an hour later i went back out and the orbs were everywhere, i couldn't see them with the naked eye but i did capture alot on camera....pretty interesting really...thankyou...

HI Tatty: I think the photo is really awesome!! Even though I'm having major
"brain farts" here doesn't someone like Sylvia Browne say that orbs are Angel's?
They could be "spirit's caught on film maybe in a few hours my wee brain will finish waking up but I love this sort of stuff, I would not consider or think of them
as dust or moisture in the air, would love to hear more about the photo or image
you saw in the mirror, that is so cool. I very much believe in all of this sort
of stuff, I know I have many "spirit's" around me all the time, Watch your pets
they always see the spirit's they watch them, they see them to where we cannot
we may feel our spirits' around us, but animals see them! Sometimes they are afraid
of them and that's ok too but mostly mine just follow them around with their eyes;
now my Cat Minx when we all lived in my mobile home she was not overly fond of
the spirits that visited there, whether they were in animal form or relatives
of mine but she always "freaked out"...LOL! it was funny to me!

Even a good friend one time when she came to visit I let her have my bedroom
and she told me the next day that she would never ever sleep in my bedroom again
as there was just too much activity in there...ROTFL! She was dead serious too and she's a firm believer in all this! I thought it was hysterical!

But I think its cool what you caught on film!! thumbup


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

jan i have a website about all this kind of stuff, there you'll find the image in my mirror too maybe you would like to come along and have a look for yourself, here's my link

http://paranormalrooms.ning.com/

this place is specfically for paranormal believers i have a small community in there already so maybe you would like to join, i have caught alot of ifferent images since way back when and i have added all of them into this site, so feel free to browse, your more than welcome....i have also added some spooky stories of things that have happened in the past, as i live in a huge 3 storey victorian house and we do get some activity now and then, so take a look and see what you think....x

I don't have a link at hand, but orbs have been proved to be dust/moisture in the atmosphere. The flash from your camera reflects back, and since you never focused on the dust, it reflects back looking out of focus and therefore bigger and slightly transparent.

Here's a simple experiment. Find a dusty cloth and a dark room. Take a photo inside the dark room using a flash. Now shake the cloth and take another photo - you should see lots of orbs on the photo.


myLot reputation of 98/100. tattylashes (4295)   ranked 142 out of 3,143 in photography  1 year ago

yes i understand what you mean about shaking the cloth, i can see that i would capture alot of the particles that will give me the illusion that i am seeing orbs, thankyou...
