Camera
Orbs - New Evidence? |
Readers of these pages will have seen our
interest in the so-called 'Orb' phenomenon, or perhaps more accurately
those orbs captured on camera, which perhaps we can term 'Camera Orbs'?
You will have seen that based on research
dating back 10 years now, it has always been our 'belief' that the vast
majority of these claimed photographed orbs are nothing more than
artefacts caused by the camera flash illuminating various particulates
- moisture, smoke, dust, pollen etc.
During the morning of 26th December 2003 -
in need of some fresh air and exercise after Christmas day, APRA
researcher Brian James went to Snelsmore Common near Newbury in
Berkshire. The intent had not been to conduct 'Camera Orb'
research, but he took his Fuji F602Z digital camera. The weather
wasn't great, with low cloud and light drizzle, and under these
conditions, Brian wouldn't have been surprised to see 'orbs' when he was
using fill-in flash. In this respect the results are as expected,
but perhaps Brian has also managed to acquire evidence for his theories
of shadow patterns son the orbs, being caused by lensing of the flash
due to droplets of moisture on the flash unit itself....

A general shot across the landscape in
the central part of Snelsmore Common. The illumination of
moisture particulates is obvious. |
 |
An unusual 'pattern' of particulate
orbs to the right of the image. Its also very noticeable how
brightly illuminated these are compared to those in the previous
image. What is also noticeable is the different shape to
these anomalies. I believe this is simply down to a
combination effect of the particulate reflection, and the fine
moisture droplets on the camera lens, which themselves were also
giving hexagonal aberrations on all images. |
 |
In many ways a similar effect to the
previous image while Brian was trying to capture the structure and
pattern contrast in a row of old trees. This image
also shows the classic 'tail' that is not the movement of the orb
upwards, but the rain droplet falling while the flash fades. |
 |
Another photo of the same trees, but
in this one we seen feint 'orbs' up amongst the tree branches.
Most importantly, we see on very clear image with a pattern,
almost a 'hole' tot he top left of the large 'orb' - giving a sort
of 'bowling ball' effect. |

 |
A view of a downed tree, which
suddenly show the clear shadow effects, in fact the same 'bowling
ball' pattern seen in the previous image. Remember, the
image above was taken with the camera held in portrait mode, while
this one is held in landscape mode - note that the 'hole' is
actually in the same relative position to the camera in each case!
The second image is a crop of the 'orbs' themselves, so you can
see greater detail. |

A curious synchronicity! While
Brian could feel no obvious energies on this site, someone had
gone to great lengths either to create a simple piece of artwork,
or to commemorate the 'Serpent' (the Earth Energy) - using twigs,
fir cones, flints and even pieces of broken glass to represent the
eye. A couple of 'orbs' managed to get into the photo -
Brian is pretty sure it was coincidence, but one can never rule
out something more meaningful, or even the Cosmic Joker effect... |
