Orbs!

Tippy · 11-07-09, 03:12 AM

Orbs are believed (by many) to be ghosts in the form of balls of light. They are life forms that travel in groups and are believed to be the human soul or life force of those that once inhabited a physical body here on earth.

What are orbs?

What do you think?

I think orbs are real, however, what's posted in that picture looks like dust.

IMO, the theory of orbs, as made famous by "Most haunted" is utter rubbish. There is no evidence to suggest that they are ghosts, or even that ghosts are real. I believe once your dead your dead.

This picture looks like out of focus rain drops, and can be replicated very very easily, and the "orbs" are brighter to the right hand side where there is more light in the picture. If they were really spirits surely natural light wouldnt have any effect.

When you see it on programs like Most Haunted, the reason it happens is because specks of dust are highlighted in infra red or negative light the camera doesnt have time to focus.

The easiest way to see this is to get a camera or telescope with manual focus, focus on anything that is shining, like a star, and take it completely out of focus adn lo and behold you end up with what looks like an orb.

I have had black tornado like vectors appear next to me on photos many times. And no, it wasn't a camara strap!

One of the most fakest pictures i've seen this year, it's obviously rain or dust, i don't believe in orbs. When you're dead it's either heaven or hell, nothing else.

Lol, me and my mates always joke about "orbs" when they appear on our pics but it's blatantly just dust or some sort of lens flare. Take it from a photography student.

hahaha it looks as tho someone has splashed the camera lens with water!!

you know there are ppl out there who believe in santa claus? and the easter bunny? and God? and vampires? and bigfoot? and aliens coming to earth and abducting people lol

i thought the idea of ghosts was loony enough, but now this! haha orbs, ye somehow i think not
