ORBS

[hkev]

Sorry for putting this in the UNexplained section !
Here's a collection of some of the worst ORB photos I've seen.
Where are the orbs in the first 3 ?

"The house was immaculate as far as clean can be. There was no real moving around of dust. I am allergic to dust; I would have been the first to know if dust was being kicked up. "

Yes they claim that the camera was never exposed to the rain
but it's raining outside. All digital cameras are affected by moisture, especally in regards to high dew points and high humidty. The pictures are from a cheap digital camera or analog
camcorder. I am pretty positive that this person was probably
ingoring or ignorant of the little high dew point warning icon
flashing on the camcorder. The photos are grainy and nothing more than dust and moisture on the lense, with one being a
camera strap over the lense. Yeah these are about as paranormal
has a garage door.

I do like the way people who photograph orbs claim they must be ghosts because:

The place was not dusty (everywhere outside a labs clean-room is dusty)
It was not raining (still moisture in the air)
I felt no draughts (air currents can be very subtle and I gues the photographer must move at some point)

any more reasons given why ORBS are real ?

I have aquired one of the old style cameras (i.e it actually uses film !) over Christmas. It has no automatic stuff on it and I will be using it with no flash. The photographs I take will be taken in semi-darkness using just the shutter speed and apature to let the light in as needed. Hopefully I will get some light anomalies on there and so rule out the effects of the flash from cameras reflecting off things, also I will have the negatives as proof that the pictures haven't been tampered with. Not holding my breathe TBH but if I do get something I'll scan it and put it up. There are many arguments about what "Orbs" are and I have no doubt even if we get orbs on this type of camera sceptics will find explanations..just as, if it doesn't believers will find a reason and an excuse why.

Wasnt there a piccy taken by someone on the GPI forum with an old 35mm camera with no flash and a blue orb like shape was on the camera ...

It was on the old forum so i think it got wiped grrrrr

there was one shazz, taken with a 35mm camera but I'm not sure whether a flash was used or not. We were told one hadn't but then told it had been taken on one of the disposible cameras which, as far as I am aware sometimes have automatic flashes.

I aim to take pictures with this one while being filmed to show I haven't used a flash..plus of course it is possible to check photographs to see if artificial light has been used. I don't even have the special type of flash attachment you need for this camera so I couldn't use one if I wanted too.
