Orbs, what are they?

Well if we could scientifically answer that question It would be a major step forward but here are a few of my thoughts and ideas.

Some believe orbs to be nothing more than dust particles reflecting light, moisture droplets, rain drops, snow, soot and camera chip faults. I have personally seen a digital camera that had a chip fault and it produced small orb like balls but with the same geometric pattern inside. I have also seen orb like photos created by snow flakes and moisture. So clearly these have reflected light for instance rain droplet orbs often have a tail to them.

I personally believe that some orbs we capture are certainly paranormal. I have during the filming of the TV series Ghost Detectives been filmed on more than one occasion correctly predicting where orbs would appear in a series of photos and where they would not. I have also been doing research on the orb phenomena with people who have had private readings and in 90% of the photo experiments the exact number of orb correlated to the numbers of returning spirits that communicated during a reading.

We have also run experiments using people who have asked one of their loved ones to return to be photographed and in over 80% of these we have captured a single orb around the person being photographed.

I have also seen orbs objectively moving at speed these almost always look like a ball of gold light which leaves a vapor trail behind it I have also seen these orbs when flying in a curve and a bend. I actually witnessed one flying along a series of back gardens curve and swing through 90 degrees into my kitchen one afternoon during daylight.

The orbs also have a clear structure to them and many people claim to see faces in side them. Now I know that the human brain is programmed to faces and that we can be fooled into seeing faces in fabrics, carpets etc. I have seen hundreds of orb photos with faces inside them, but I only have a small handful where every person who has without prompting seen the photos has claimed to have seen the same face.

When out investigating haunting’s I have often taken a series of orb photos moving around a building in what appears to be a very systematic way on a regular basis, often at the same time every day! I have also captured orbs on photos when I have felt a presence and also experienced a physical drop in temperature in the room the orbs have been captured in.

I believe through my experiences using night vision cameras, digital camera, laser thermometers, my clairvoyant abilities that some orbs are what we think of as being the remnants of our soul after the physical body has past away. 

I am continuing to develop experiments that we can replicate with other people to take our research further and hopefully answer the orb question either partially or fully in time.
