Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!

Friday Oct. 31, 2008

New London - Happy Halloween one and all. I am taking some time out of my PJ work today for some Halloween fun. This is a photo that I took several nights ago in the attic of a home that my wife and I were touring. This image (other than contrast) has not been altered or manipulated in any way. And what should appear but Orbs.

Many people believe that Orbs are signs of paranormal activity...I however am not one of them. I think that they are signs of dust or other debris. The problem is, is that they are not as easily photographically explained away as that. I ran this photo through all sorts of tests and could not explain the ghostly images away. They produce no shadows, yet they reflect light. Through my research I have found that well over 98% of all orb photography, are photos taken with flash, usually on a point-and-shoot camera. This is crucial because the flash and lens are on the same axis, or in other words, in my opinion, Orbs are about the same a Red Eye. Or caused by the same science. I have yet to see an orb in a natural light photo, or a photo where the flash is "off camera".

With all that said, I cannot fully explain this photo. Elvis, and Jimi Hendrix were not in the attic with me. Neither did I see any balls of light floating around. I will post more, if Em and I end up buying the house. Until then...THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE! cue the x-files theme music.
