If you treat the photography of orbs as an occasional leisure activity to relieve boredom, the orbs will treat you with similar disdain. Time and again researchers report that intermittent and superficial interest simply results in occasional sightings. However, focused and consistent orbservation is rewarded with a much higher intensity of orb activity. This raises a fascinating question: is the increase in orb activity triggered by the energy of the orbserver or do orbs have an intelligence and communications capability?

 

Our vision only operates in a tiny band within the electro magnetic spectrum. The human eye only detects radiation within the visible spectrum of 382 to 780 nanometres. But the vision of most animals is way outside this band which surely makes it ludicrous for anybody to think that if we can’t see something it isn’t there! 

 

When the digital camera picks up infrared light it is unable to show this light on the screen on the back of the camera or allow it to be printed on photographic paper. So the camera is designed to convert infrared light into a form which is visible to us. After all who would buy a camera that took invisible photographs?

 

So even though orbs emit low infrared light we do not see this on our camera screens. What we are seeing is infrared light converted to make it visible to the human eye. It’s a fact that some people, albeit a tiny minority, are able to adjust their body energy system outside the normal light spectrum and consequently can see orbs with the naked eye.   

 

Orb behaviour suggests that they exhibit some form of intelligence. Researchers report that at the beginning of a photography session very few orbs appear to be present, however it is only a matter of seconds before many more appear. It has also been noted that if more orbservers start photographing with identical cameras at the same time, some record a mass of orbs, others see just a few and some see none.

 

Orbs have also been seen to exhibit a group behavioural pattern much in the way that a shoal of fish or flock of birds all move together en masse.

 

The latest scientific research suggests the reason the camera ‘sees’ the orbs is not because they reflect light, absorb or scatter light, the three conventional ways in which objects become visible to us when illuminated, but that orbs absorb the photons from the camera flash. They then convert them into electrons and  expel them again as photons which is how they become visible to us. It is believed when photons from the camera flash strike the orb it triggers a fluorescent reaction much as occurs with sodium street lights and fluorescent tubes in our home.

 

If it is true that orbs 'fluoresce' it follows that they must have a physicality, albeit one which is at variance with Newtonian physics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

HOW  TO  ORBSERVE

 

Modern photography dates back to the early 19th century and the principle holds good today. Light comes through the lens and it is focused upon a receiving medium such as film or in the modern digital camera a CCD.

 

Film cameras and digital cameras both have shutters which operate at variable speeds. You can film with a digital movie camera as long as you can deactivate the hot mirrors which filter out infrared light. Some people use a powerful strobe light in place of the flash of the stills camera and this causes the orbs to fluoresce.

 

Film cameras record an image on film coated with emulsion which contains light-sensitive silver halide crystals. When a beam of light strikes the emulsion these crystals undergo a chemical change which records the image.  Later the image appears when the film is immersed in a chemical bath. In digital cameras the image formed by the lens strikes a chip called a ‘charge coupled device’, or CCD, which is a collection of diodes and silicon dots called photosites.When the light strikes the silicon dots of the CCD, the photons are converted into electrons and the electrical charge is stored on the silicon dots.

 

There is incredible snobbery surrounding orb photography. It’s a fact most orbs are photographed using less expensive cameras and some people use this as confirmation that orbs are nothing more than camera malfunction. The reality is many high-end cameras utilise an elaborate system of hot mirrors to eliminate stray reflections and lens flare in order to improve the quality of pictures. Unfortunately these systems filter out the near infrared light emitted by orbs. So if you want to get the best results you do not need an expensive camera!

 

When choosing a suitable camera there is a very simple test you can perform so you know if the camera is capable of receiving infrared light. Point a TV remote controller, which operates by sending an infrared beam, into the camera and note whether or not there is a glow of light on the rear screen. If there is, you know the hot mirror will not stop you photographing orbs.

 

 

ORBSERVERS  BELIEVE:

 

 

• Orbs are not particles of dust, rain drops or malfunctions of the camera.

 

• Orbs generate their own light- a luminescence produced by photons that are triggered by the camera flash.

 

• Orbs are electro magnetic energy which can be detected by a simple Gauss meter.

 

• Orbs transmit energy on different frequencies which accounts for the different colours.

 

• Orbs are predominantly nothing to do with ghostly apparitions or religious ideology.

 

• Orbs are able to move their electrons which possibly explains how they travel at such high  speed.
