Digital Picture Orbs: Explaining Unusual White Objects
In summary, the little white things on digital pictures are internal reflections off of lens elements in front of the focal plane. They occur in all cameras, not just digital ones, and their positioning on the focal plane is extremely sensitive to the position and angle of the camera. This can cause them to appear in different places on the photo, even when taken consecutively.

They are internal reflections off of lens elements in front of the focal plane. They occur in all cameras, not just digital ones. The reason they seem to move about randomly is because their positioning on the focal plane is extremely sensitive to the position and angle of the camera. If you're hand-holding your camera, it's likely that the camera moves enough from one frame to the next to move these little reflections.

Well, gee, if you watched enough daytime TV talkshows, you'd know they are ghosts or spirits!
But if you want to be serious, you'll have to listen to chroot 1. What are digital picture orbs?
Digital picture orbs are unusual white objects that can appear in photographs or videos. They are typically circular or spherical in shape and have a translucent or glowing appearance.
2. What causes digital picture orbs?
The exact cause of digital picture orbs is still a subject of debate. Some theories suggest that they are caused by dust, moisture, or insects in the air that reflect light back into the camera lens. Others believe they could be a form of energy or spiritual presence.
3. Are digital picture orbs always a sign of paranormal activity?
No, digital picture orbs can have both natural and supernatural explanations. It is important to rule out any possible natural causes, such as dust or reflections, before jumping to conclusions about paranormal activity.
4. Can camera settings affect the appearance of digital picture orbs?
Yes, the camera settings can play a role in the appearance of digital picture orbs. For example, a wide aperture or slow shutter speed can increase the chances of capturing orbs, while using a flash can reduce their appearance.
5. How can I determine if a digital picture orb is real or fake?
It can be difficult to determine the authenticity of a digital picture orb without further investigation. However, some signs that an orb may be fake include a perfectly circular shape, a consistent size or pattern, and being present in multiple photos from different sources.
