“I have been hunting ghosts for many years. At first I was excited about photos with orbs in them because I was told by my group leader that these where ghosts as seen by the camera. I have since come to realize that this is not the case. All kinds of airborne particles can cause an orb to show in photos. So, I teach my band of merry ghost hunters that orbs are interesting but not good evidence. 

Although I agree that the photos taken on paranormal investigations that contain orbs are mostly explainable, I believe that the trained eye can pick out the ones that are trash and the one that is really worth taking some time to review. Science has proved that energy exists all around us and that it exists in the shape of orbs. Science has also proved that at death the human body emits a small amount of energy into the air around us.

With these two proven facts, don't you believe that some of the orbs may be basic spirit manifestations? If you are going to eliminate the orbs because most of them are bogus, then you will need to eliminate the EVPs also. They have never been proved to be voices from beyond the grave.”
