Forums · I Have some New Awesome Orbs Pics!! Gotta see them!!!
Ok, I took some more pics of the house. I was home alone and had a creepy feeling that someone was watching me. Everywhere I went it would follow me. Well I thought this would be a great time to take some pics around the house. Sorry for the mess - we're getting ready to give a bunch of stuff to good will. I got Befores and Afters. I got some good Orbs this time, hehehe!

In this pic it looks like there are a couple of faces what do you guys think?

Also, in this next pic, do you guys know what is on the floor by the chair. It's looks like Guinea Pig beside the chair? There were no loose animals or toys on the floor, or I woulda tripped over it coming outta that room? can anyone blow this up to see what it might be?

Interesting pictures. In hall2, it looks like the orb is partially behind the soda can. (btw, is that a giant soda can, or is it the normal 12oz size? It looks big in the pic) That proves it isn't dust or a reflection. The orb in the stairs pic looks like it's moving. Though it could be dust, the movement is often indicative of a "real" orb. How much time elapsed between the "before" and "after " shot?
As for the mirror, I didn't see any faces. It's hard to discern or confirm that sort of thing in a mirror pic because of all the reflections (including the flash).
As for the "guinea pig", did you take more than one shot there? Looking at the pic it looks like something on the floor. Here's a couple of enlargements I made:
This next one is a negative image
It does look like a small animal or something, though it's hard to tell with the noise in the pic. I'd take another pic of that spot to rule out a carpet stain or something else physical.

Thanks Kevin - Nope no other photos of the floor, but I gaurantee there were no animals loose in the house. they didn't even own a guinea pig, just white mice. The pics were taken back to back. Couple of secs apart. I was talkin to it while I was just flashing pics. Like where are you, and I know you're there. Please show yourself, and so forth. Also, the "giant soda can" is a lollipop cantainer, made to look like a soda can. It contained cola-pops. My sis bought the whole container full of suckers to get the can it came in. She collects stuff like that.
Thanks Starlou - How many faces do you see, or do u see just one? I know I see a woman and possible a man on the right upper side? Thanks for looking!

I agree with Kevin. The orb appears to be partly behind the can and one area of it seems to be illuminted some. I think you captured a nice orb there. =) Oh it looks like a giant size can to me. I'm not completely sure on the stair orb. It does appear to be moving which is usualy indicative of real orbs but this one appears to be of a different substance then the other (including when you use a photo edit prog) which makes me uncertain. It aslo doesn't seem to have some illumintion as the can orb. I'm just not sure with this one. The absence of indicators may not always mean it's false just harder to determine.
Not sure what the thing on the rug might be? I like Kevin's idea of taking some more pics of the area to rule out possible factors that could create this. Sorry but I also don't see any faces in the mirror. The flash and reflections can be fooling.
Nice pics Brandi.![[Cool]](cool.gif)
As a side note on indicators: I was looking at some orb videos recently (GIS link on the left side-bar under EVP). It was interesting the way the orbs moved and dependent on how they moved they became more or less visible. In some the orb was there briefly and then faded away in the video and others the orb appeared to stop momentarily. It challenged my thoughts a bit with regards to how orbs may appear in pics. It remains very important to consider all factors. Some are clearly dust, moisture, bugs etc and we can capture false orbs that are both solid and faint (like the ice examples in your other thread). I guess I'm just noting the absence of certain indicators may not always mean it's a false positive. =)

Hi Brandi, maybe I can help a little here.
Sometimes reasonable explanation can be readily found to show what caused a potential anomoly which leads to opinion it is not of paranormal nature. As reference, if an orb closely resembles those examples of false positives (like the ice orb pics let's say) I think it's reasonable for anyone familiar with these types of pictures to provide comment accordingly. The more time anyone spends viewing pics of both false and positive captures the better trained the eye becomes. Granted we (speaking generally) are not always correct in our assumptions as afterall there is still much to learn about PN, and we humans can make mistakes.![[Wink]](wink.gif)
It is important to be honest with opinions even if you disagree with others, but I feel it is equally important to provide a brief explanation with your conclusion in particular if you are seeing something others are not or not seeing what they are. It helps us all learn and can eliminate confusion that may result from a differing opinion.
In saying that, Damien it may helpful if you can provide a little more insight to your comment. I am curious also. As mentioned I was not sure about the stair orb as even though it appears to be moving it does seem more characteristic of a dust orb. The smaller orb looks different to me and less like a dust orb (it resembles others I've seen) so I'm still thinking it has potential? Looking forward to your comments.
I really enjoy picture posts as they can be windows to places we have not been and you just never know who may be looking back. Thanks again for sharing yours Brandi. =)

This is not the first pics I have posted. Most of the time when people leave feedback they usually give me their explanation and their reasoning or insight. That's all I am asking for is others feedback, not just to leave and opinion and run, I opologize if I have offended anyone on here.
Thanks,
Brandi
Thanks,

You know, I think Damien is right on this one... I downloaded and blew up the soda can orb pic, and now I can see the orb is not behind the can. The edge of the orb overlaps the edge of the can and the orb is translucent. This makes it more likely that it's just dust.
Sorry, Brandi. =) The "guinea pig" pic is intriguing though, I wonder what Damien thinks of that one. Did you shoot another pic of that area yet Brandi?

Explanation of what others may or may not see sure does help. Thanks for the additional comment Damien. As noted of the pics it was the small orb that I thought had potential. I did the super zoom and contrast etc. and can also see the portion that is on the can which is translucent (as Kevin noted) and the one piece that has a bit of illumination does fade, given that I too have to agree it is likely dust. Sorry Brandi I should have taken a better look as I missed that in my first view of these. I'm still in learning mode with examining of pictures and understanding all that PN has to offer. =)
Damien I agree an orb does not always mean a haunting. For me I associate a haunting with earthbounds (ghost/entity) and not with spirit visits. Perhaps you disagree and feel they are one in the same? Is it possible a spirit orb, at times, may not be as strong as an earthbounds or visa verse? Removing dust, moisture, reflection etc. (as well as ghost/spirit orb) I know there is still some debate on other potential causes for these little energy balls. I'm glad we can gather to share and learn from each others experience(s). =)

My thoughts here are that both orbs are most likely paranormal/spiritual in nature. Just my opinion, and certainly not a scientifically proven fact. But, I do agree with Damien that the mere presence of an orb does not necessarily mean it is a haunting, even though orbs may be found in places that are very haunted.
Spirits are present all around us, and they are probably here for many reasons. I believe that they make themselves visible for a variety of reasons... sometimes just because they may simply be curious about what we are doing. For instance, we seem to get many more orb pictures in our house around the holidays. I think they like to join in the festivities. Orbs seem to be fond of my son, and we even have a pic of him with a small orb exiting his nose. Orbs also like to sit on my husband's head. Sounds crazy, but it happens quite often. =)
Soda Can orb: Personally, I don't feel that being in front of or behind the soda can makes any difference here, as I believe that a paranormal orb OR a piece of dust could just as easily be in front of OR behind the soda can.
Another thing that I find in the cases of both dust and moisture, is that there are usually several of these kinds of orbs in any given picture. Dust and moisture tends to be present in a large number of particles or droplets in the air, and not just one. I feel that when it is just a single orb in a picture, there is a stronger chance that it is paranormal, and I examine it more closely.
One thing to remember about any of the pictures posted is that everyone is giving just an OPINION, and none of us can prove any of these things to a scientific certainty, at least not with the technology that we have today. That is part of what makes photographing things that may be paranormal so interesting.... we are on a new frontier, so to speak, of finding more answers to an age old mystery... do ghosts/spirits really exist? I am one person of many in the world who believes that they do, My reasons for believing this are many, and I find it exciting that even non-scientists can join in on the search for more definitive answers. There is still much to be discovered, and a great deal of things to be learned about the paranormal, and I find that fascinating.
So, opinions of others may not always be what we want to hear, but we must bear in mind that they are simply opinions. No one is right or wrong in this... we all see it a bit differently. But, we are all here to learn from one another, and we can only do that by examining ALL opinions for the grains of truth that may or may not be there. Each of us needs to go by our gut feelings/psychic impressions on so much of this. But, the great pictures are there, all around us... and all we have to do is snap them, and we never know what we will get, even in the familiar surroundings of our own homes.
Thanks for sharing your pics, Brauvura, and keep on taking them! These were interesting! We love seeing them, and, don't be put off by opinions that might be different than your own.
