Image for Orb photography

Orb photography

Orb photography involves capturing circular, glowing orbs often seen in photos, usually caused by dust, insects, or moisture close to the camera lens reflecting or scattering light. These orbs can appear in various colors, sizes, and brightness levels. While some interpret them as paranormal phenomena, most are well-understood photographic artifacts resulting from flash exposure or ambient light interacting with particles near the lens. Proper camera techniques, such as avoiding flash in dusty environments or using manual settings, can reduce or eliminate orb appearances, ensuring clearer images.
