Hello, Over many years of my life people have shown me pics with strange things in them such as orbs/fog/ghosts/ etc. I just thought it would be fun to start a thread About these subjects because its interesting. I wanna know what you think causes these effects? I wanna know what's the best camera settings to catch these things? (say in a dark cemetery) I would like to hear anything on this subject. And I would like to see some pics of these things. When I find mine I will upload. Here is one I found on the internet in my home town it's the first pic. It's a real old pic so who knows what could have happened with the old camera they used, I'm more interested in digital but I don't have any. http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=470675 Thanks
You are right it is very interesting and I would like to see other photos with strange ghostly images on them. As far as taking them in a cemetery for example, I would recommend that a camera is staged on a tripod in a location that is supposed to have some ghostly activity. You would try for a long exposure to see if there is anything captured at all. This would then answer the question that is: the strange orbs and fogs that have been observed on film where really the result of a manufacturing defect in the film stock and or chemical contamination. Since a digital camera does not have any of the above issues, if the final picture has a strange color or shape, then that is what was presented to the CCD or CMOS then and there...... Cue some X-files music please
LOL, That was Perfect. How would I go about doing a long exposure? As soon As I dig these other 2 pics out I will post them. Thanks, for some reason this forum(digital photograph) is kinda dead But I'm sure in time more people will Contribute.
Well for most DSLR camera there should be an TV value of at least 10 seconds and ten there is the B setting which stands for Bulb. I am not sure if DSLR cameras have that. I will have a look and get back to you.
