Ghost orbs

[BigBill]

My two trail cams are running 24/7 in the woods. We took the card out of it. We seen plenty of deer but we caught a white orb up in the tree, the next shot it's closer to the ground. I have spirit ghosts on my land outside. I can't seem to post pics from my putter on here.

Do you live in an area that was once inhabited by Indians?

Bill— It's called "backscatter" or near-camera reflection. This is an optical illusion due to the camera's flash being reflected from unfocused motes of dust, water droplets, or other particles in the air or water. It is especially common with small digital cameras like you have with Trail/Game cameras.

I get the craziest ones from high-humidity, foggy, damp days because the IR flash reflects from the water molecules floating in the air.

I'll look again. This was at night in the pitch black dark. I've captured orbs before in dudleytown. I used 400 film in my camera

Unless they just moved in....

...they've been there a lo-o-oooong time. I doubt that you would have a chance in court of getting them evicted, so if they aren't bothering you, it's best to let them be.

This is old farm land and my road is an old wagon trail. Down my road there's an old inn where stage coach riders stayed overnight. On my land there's an old bent L shaped tree they used to mark trails. Who knows who was killed out there.

When I was loggin in the state forest I can across large piles of stones on one side of a hill. There must of been 12+ piles all the same height and length. All parallel with each other. I been told Native American Indians were there. The logger before me quit. I seen things but won't go into details I did finish the job but with respect.

i had many experiences with orbs in 1985.Fitst appearing as a large ball of blueish light, when i saw it is reduced in size. It then moved onto a wall and moved in a very erratic pattern,going to the floor and rolling out the wall.For the next 2 months,when i woke up and threw my blanket off,i would get a glimpse of it. It would be the size of a quarter,and on the underside of my blanket. I saw it many times.This is a short version of my experiences with orbs. They are real,but most photos of them are lens flare. They do not like to be seen. The impression i got of mine was that it had come as protection during a difficult time in my life

I have posted - saw one when I was a teenager.
It was just before Sunrise, I was headed for a little Duck Shooting.
It appeared to be several feet in diameter, was glowing, bouncing and rolling toward me across an open field.
Yes I ducked down and loaded my 12 Ga.
Then I cautiously looked over the ditch bank I ducked behind.
It was gone!

My wife is a big believer in this type of thing. I don't argue. There's more to this life than what we can see.

I live near the old town of St Augustine, Fl and we go there often for dinner and entertainment on a regular basis.

When we are out and about downtown, we take snapshots and we get images of orbs floating about in the background.

However when we take pictures in the old downtown cemetery, the orb count goes sky high.

Why, I don't know, but something is there causing the spike in orb activity in this area of the deceased.

Just something else that makes me go Hmmmmm?

That's a classic example of backscatter—floating dust. The light and camera lens catches the dust particle and it reflects as an orb.

I used to be as well.
Consider yourself fortunate.

I have vaguely written on some of my personal experieinces in this area on this forum in the past.

Maybe ball lightning?

Not exactly orbs but perhaps caused by a similar lens flare you have described.
I've posted these pictures earlier in a "spooky game camera pics" thread.

 

[6518John]

Dave I think that is a Bush or branch that got right in front of the lens. I have gotten several similar pictures when I knew the ground was clear in front of the camera. I finally figured out leaves and branches were falling from above and triggering the camera. They simply won't focus close up and the IR flash simply whites out what is directly in front.

We had a katydid land on our video doorbell at night. It looked like we were being invaded from Mars.

Post no trespassing signs and normally the spooks leave. Normally they are more well behaved than non spooks

Yes, I think you are correct. Maybe it was a breezy night as well. The image seems to move since the background remains static in the 2 pictures. That's what made it a little spooky.
