Gilson Road Cemetery – ghost orb

On the evening of 21 May 2002, Fiona visited Gilson Road Cemetery, Nashua, NH, to experiment with photographs, hoping to explain a few anomalies in some “ghost photo” class pictures.

Using a digital camera, she took just two “regular” photos after dusk. One has a clear anomaly:

no orbs

same location, less than a second later, one orb

And no, that’s not a “smiley face” in the second photo. Enlarged, here’s how it looks:

We use this photo to illustrate the qualities that separate rain orbs, pollen orbs, etc., from the orbs that we consider anomalies, or “ghost orbs.”
