The term orb is the popular name given to typically circular anomalies appearing in photographs. In photography and video, orbs appear to be balls, diamonds, or smears of light with an apparent size in the image ranging from a golfball to a basketball depending on the distance of the dust particle to the lens. Orbs sometimes appear to be in motion, leaving a trail behind them.

There are two main trains of thought regarding the cause of orbs in photographs. The first school sees it as a fairly clear-cut case of flash or ambient light reflection off of dust, particles, insects, or moisture droplets in the air in front of the camera distorted by the digital cameras CCD lens being unable to focus, i.e. they are naturalistic. The opposing school maintains that orbs are paranormal in nature and spirits, i.e. non-naturalistic and ghost like.

Circles In Pictures

The circles you are seeing are caused by bright light sources from off to the side of the area photographed. The light enters the lens and is reflected between the surfaces of the lenses in the camera lens barrel with some of the light being bounced onto the film or image plane.

My first thought was that they were orbs, but they aren't supposed to be really bright, you're supposed to see through them. It's probably a defect in the picture.
