Today after church, a man showed us pictures he'd taken during the service with a digital camera (nikon) there were blue spheres floating around in the pictures that he said were angels. Anyone have an explanation? |

The man called them blue orbs. They looked like perfect blue circles of different sizes and seemed almost translucent. One picture had one, another had three. I did a search for blue orbs and they seem rather popular with the paranormal crowd - either having to do with ghosts or UFOs. I'm a skeptic - what do you all think - how'd he do it? |

As for the blue "Orbs" When shooting shots of a family members wedding, with so many differat forms of lighting in the church. I too had this happen. Just the light passing through the lens. And if he got lucky enough to catch an angel or two, Did he ask em to say "cheese"? hehe...

My guess would be photoshop. I could add a blue ord to any pic. in seconds. But next time I make a mistake I may use his reasoning. Must be a ghost. hehehe |

Spots or dust on the lens. I get them all the time, and I doubt there are too many ghosts hanging out at metal shows ;) (for me, they come from sweaty musicians swinging long hair and spraying sweat all over the camera lens!) |
