orbs at an Aboriginal sacred site

Unread post by topender »

A friend at work was out in Arhen land with another person, who is "sensitive" to paranormal things, she suddenly had the urge to photogragh a section of the forest for no apparent reason, this was the result

Interesting photo, Topender!

To be honest, I have no knowledge of orb photography and thereby key pointers to look for. I have however blown up the photo and made some observations about the "globes".

Firstly, they are each darker in the centre than on the outer edges. They are each transparent. Some are brighter than others. There are two or three different sizes. Seems to be a random splatter pattern concentrated in the centre of the photograph with globes overlapping. It is extremely difficult to guage distance of the globes from the camera lens, as I was looking for any that may have been partly hidden by physical objects like the trees, but didn't pick any.

The grass in the foreground appears to be lit up, which suggests to me your friend has taken the photo using a flash. The sun is out of view in the photo and colouring of the sky indicates it is in the background and has just set or is in the process of setting.

I'm sure there are others here who are more knowledgeable in this area than I. If the globes can be positively ruled out as dust particles in front of the camera lens lit up by camera flash and ebbing rays of sunlight, and distance from the lens can be guaged, they may reflect an aspect of the sacred nature of the site.

Hey Topper,

I really don't know anything about orbs to feel as if my comment is worth anything, but on looking at the photo, it's apparent that whatever the globes are, they are all in front of the objects in the photo, i.e. the trees, leaves, grass etc. Not one that I can see is partially obscured by anything physical, so I'm tending to think it could be pollen in the air lit up by the flash. I know my gum trees are flowering at the moment, so it would be interesting to know if the spotted gum at the left was in bloom and if the globes could be pollen motes caught in the flash. Just my .02

Also, the person who took the photograph may have been aware of something we cannot see, even with a camera. I never discount intuition - it's been 'right' too many times for me personally to believe otherwise.

Kind regards,
Shazz
