Does anyone believe that the little white dots that show up in pictures are really "orbs" or ghosts?

Answer 1

Yes sometimes. Sometimes, the "orb" may just be a dust particle moving in front of the camera (very common.) Other times, someone could be shining a flashlight and someone mistook it as an orb. Orbs come in different colors, sometimes pink, blue, green, you get the picture. The most common color is pearly white.

Not just orbs show up in pictures. Sometimes mists show up, sometimes even an actual spirit.

Answer 2

Well I believe they are I have many photos of people and right above them is an orb which I would say is their Spirit Guide.
I also have an amazing photo of a friend in the middle of a rain forest looking at something just above him, I took the photo and sure thing there was an orb in front of him.

I guess it is just like believing that we have lost souls walking around on earth try to find the light to take them to the other side.

Some believe and Some don't

And I don't believe they are dust particles as I can take 5 photos in a row and only the middle photo will have an orb in it .So if it was a dust particle why isn't it on all the photo's ?

Answer 3

Though I do not believe that all "orbs" are spirits/souls/whatever you wish to call them...I believe that some may be. Please let me explain before you start laughing...
First, I am Wiccan, so this is right up my alley anyway. Please do not confuse Wicca with witchcraft. Wicca is merely an offshoot of paganism, which is NOT to be confused with devil-worship or cultism. FYI: pagans do not believe in the devil...we believe in living harmoniously...and Wiccans believe in learning to harness natural forces (ie: positive thinking).
As far as orbs, many "spots" on pictures can be explained logically...dust, bad angle on light, movement in the photo, water spots on the lens, etc etc etc. However, there are many that just aren't explicable. Also, there is a tremendous increase in the number of orbs in photos in certain, predictable places, such as cemetaries (old ones anyway) and often, these orbs even show up on night vision cameras.

Additionally, I have an odd story to add to this. When I was 3 years old, my ailing great-grandmother came to live with us...2 years later she was diagnosed with alzheimer's and shortly after had to be placed in a care facility for her own safety. The last night that she spent at home, my mother woke at 3:30am and walked to the kitchen, passing my bedroom door. Grandma was sitting on the edge of my bed watching me sleep. Mom asked her (I was woken by the movement in my room) what she was doing, and grandma said that she wanted to spend the time with me before she died...Mom quickly escorted Grandma to her own room and went back to bed. Grandma died within a month of being admitted to the home. The morning that she died, I woke up from a very strange dream and thought that I had seen my grandmother sitting at the edge of my bed...like so many nights before. Only this time she had told me not to worry because she would always watch over me while I sleep.
To this day, a photo has never been taken of me in a bedroom where an orb is not present in the frame. -Just a little something to keep you thinking.
