Semi and the Orb
Submitted 7/12/2006 (by anonymous)
Took this on a whim, felt I had to for whatever reason. Wanted to catch the moon over the truck. The one on the truck's roof is interesting if you zoom in on it, I took 2 more in succession, to see if it was reflections after reviewing the original on the digital preview thingy. The reflections in the windshield were consistent, nothing else was there.

The only 'tampering' we did with the photos, was to black out the name and markings on the truck to help keep this persons identity private. The first picture, above the building to the left, is the moon. But you notice on the top of the truck, and of course to the right side of the pictures, you see 'orbs' in motion.
Here are the photos, enhanced:
Top of the truck:
Now the one beside it
This is one of the most interesting photos of an orb we have seen submitted to us to this date (2006)
. You can see this object, clearly in motion. And when you switch it to a negative, it seems to have 'consistency'. We can rule out this is not dust, anything on the lens, humidity, bugs, or pixel distortions. But the problem is, we cannot say what it is with 100% confidence. But we are leaning towards that this might be a photo of an actual orb. We leave it up to you to decide.
ORBS in NYC
TAPIS: We were very excited to receive photos from New York! One of my personal favorite places in the world (my grandfather is from Saratoga)
Name of photo: 100 year old house w/history
Location: Huntington , NY
Description and Date of incident: Started Feb.1, 2006…….still happening. After having a tenant leave an apartment above the area we occupy we went up to assess the damage. My son and his friend felt something in the apartment. The next night they went up to take some photos and entered a part of the attic which is never used. The first 2 pictures were taken the first night. The 3rd picture was taken the next night by me. Before I took the pictures on night 2 I sat and talked in the dark, letting the energies (which I will refer to them for now) know they were welcome in our home. The 4th picture was taken in the room below where my son and his friend first had the feeling they weren’t alone. These orbs all have faces and I have some incredible pictures which I will not publish until someone who knows more about this stuff tells me I am not crazy.
HAPIA (now TAPIS); Usually one has to watch when taking pictures with a digital camera in an 'attic' or basement - there usually is lots of dust particles that can show up as 'orbs'. You see what appears to be an 'orb' in motion We have also enhanced the photos by clarifying them - to show that there isn't the 'sea' of dust particles behind the ones that are noticeable. Also note: we appreciate the public sharing their photos - even if they turn out to be explained. We don't consider someone crazy if they are capturing something they cannot explain themselves. Its important that teams such as ours cooperate with the public, as well as other teams all findings, so maybe we can come a little closer to understanding what this 'phenomenon' is.
Mist in the Graveyard
Location: Strathmore, Alberta
Name of photo/evp/video/story: Possible Spirit
Description and Date of incident: Dec 27, 2007, 9:30 pm
My brother and I went to the cemetery to take some photos, as we entered the cemetery, my brother took the first photo, he was standing about 15-20 feet away from what we think is a spirit of some kind. The spirit looked like it was coming from behind the thing where they put the ashes. We are sure that the picture that we took is something paranormal, we just want your take on the picture. Also if you could zoom in on it, its like you can see some faces in it. I hope to hear from you soon, as we would like to know what it is for sure.
Following enhanced by HAPIA (TAPIS)
From HAPIA (now TAPIS) - we couldn't see the faces, but mist is quite interesting. A couple of our investigators question if someone was behind the monument breathing out on the cold day - or blowing smoke? Was there a wind that night that might have blown some snow off the monument at the moment the photo was taken? If those were ruled out, it does make for an interesting photo.
