"Orbs Smorbs"

Note: I forgot to add this to the article, but I'm not bashing those who say orbs may be something. That may be, but I'm just going by what I think and I hope that just like I can respect your opinions on orbs, you can respect mine.

"Orbs Smorbs"

Written by James Paradie

There are two types of investigators: those who believe in orbs and those who don't. We at NEPI do not believe that orbs are spirits. Orbs, if you do not know, are these spheres that show up in photos and sometimes video. They are neat at first, but according to some experts in the field, roughly 95% of orbs caught on photos and video are nothing more than natural accuracies and are not paranormal in any way.

What are they then? Specks of dust, rain, and flies are the biggest culprits. You see, when you take a picture, the flash from the camera causes a reflection to bounce off these "culprits" and cause these perfectly round spheres. At first glance it may look like you have something, but upon further investigation and debunking processes you find out it's something ordinary rather than extraordinary. Some investigators swear these are something and they are entitled to their own opinion, but the vast majority do not believe this to be true.

Of course, they are some orbs that just don't fill the bill of it being bugs, dust, or what have you. Sometimes we bump into something that just seems to weird to be true to the form we've all become accustomed to. Some believe that bright colored orbs, which can range in various colors, can be classified as paranormal. Others even see faces in these orbs and that's where the belief that it may be a spirit comes into play. Investigators need to remember that the eyes do find different shapes and turn them into something that they are not.
