*******************************

I had read about Orbs on the internet before they started appearing in my images but, even so, the first thought that flashed through my mind when I saw the large circular spots in the pic on the back of my little Canon was, “Oh no! How did the lab damage my negatives so badly!” LOL!!! Then I cried, because they were so magically and beautifully ethereal that I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. That was in 2010, and I have taken many pictures of Orbs since then.

Soon I was searching the web for more information about them, and I bought a few books. There are many more books and websites now, but an interview with Klaus Heineman who has written and co-written a number of books about Orbs, was the first I found. I think I have three of his books (in one of my boxes). I've posted the intro and link below.

Klaus Heinemann On Orbs & Entities

IS THIS THE PROOF THAT SPIRITS DO EXIST?

At first, it seemed no more than a curious coincidence. Professor Klaus Heinemann, a researcher for NASA, the U.S. space agency, was studying a collection of photographs his wife had taken at a gathering of spiritual healers when he noticed that many of them featured the same pale but clearly defined circle of light, like a miniature moon, hovering above some of the subjects.

Like most rational people, he assumed that the pictures were faulty. ‘I presumed the circles were due to dust particles, flash anomalies, water particles and so on,’ says Prof Heinemann.

‘But I was sufficiently intrigued that I returned to the room in which the pictures were taken, in the hope of finding an explanation – like a mirror in the background. None was forthcoming.’

Nor could he find any faults with his wife’s camera. And as a scientist with considerable experience in sophisticated microscope techniques – examining matter down to atomic levels of optical resolution – his methods were nothing if not rigorous.

Still puzzled, Heinemann set out to discover what else might have caused the mysterious circles. He and his wife began taking hundreds of digital photographs at random events to see whether they could recreate the mysterious effect.

The answer was that they could make these shimmering ‘orbs’ appear again, but only – absurd as it may sound – if they ‘asked’ the apparitions to make themselves visible to the camera. And they found this method worked particularly well when the couple photographed spiritual gatherings.

What on earth was going on? Again, a maverick technical glitch seemed the obvious answer. Such anomalies happen frequently in digital photography. If you accidentally jog a camera while a picture is being taken, especially in dim light, you can easily get a double image.

But again, Prof Heinemann ruled out a technical fault. ‘We were quickly able to eliminate the common problems associated with photography — such as dust particles, water droplets, reflections and a host of other likely causes.’

Yet the orbs still kept appearing. And the more images he took, the more he was able to study the bizarre properties of these shimmering lights.

Heinemann set up dozens of experiments using two cameras on static tripods under controlled conditions. His early experiments found that orbs can move very fast, up to 500 mph or more.
